D66 and Pro want a ban on stacking political positions

D66 and Pro propose a ban on dual political roles to prevent conflicts of interest and ensure politicians can fully commit to their responsibilities. CDA Minister Heerma supports the initiative, emphasizing the need for clear governance structures. Critics, particularly from PVV and Forum for Democracy, argue that voters should decide on such matters and express concerns about the implications of the proposal on their work. The proposal is still in development but may gain majority support in parliament.
