Netherlands Minority Cabinet Navigates Complex Reform Agenda

The Netherlands operates under a minority cabinet, which means that every major reform outlined in the coalition agreement will require individual negotiation and vote in both of the country's parliamentary houses.

These reforms include an allocation of an additional €19 billion (£16.6 billion) for defence and proposed reductions in healthcare and benefits.
