Tension rises: cabinet has been in talks all day about the tax plan and box 3
Negotiations on the tax plan are ongoing, with no agreement reached among coalition parties D66, VVD, and CDA. The main point of contention remains box 3, and the cabinet aims to submit a proposal to the House on Tuesday. A debate on the tax plan is scheduled for Wednesday, with a vote set for November 12. The situation mirrors previous crisis talks, with differing political preferences complicating consensus. The Council of State's negative advice on a capital gains tax has further complicated discussions, particularly for the VVD, which opposes delaying reforms. Prime Minister Rob Jetten emphasized the need for careful consideration of the proposal's viability before presenting it to the House.
