The coalition parties VVD and PvdA have Monday afternoon reached an agreement on the review of the tax system.
 
PvdA-leader Diederik Samsom has announced that at the end of the final Summit on the Ministry of finance.
 
Last week there was already a global agreement reached by the negotiators. Recent days were "dot the i".
 
The next time the coalition with the opposition parties to the table in order to obtain broad support. This support is needed, because the Government has no majority in the Senate.
 
Secret Samsom repeated Monday that the content of the agreement remains secret to Prinsjesdag. It would, according to him, the chances for an agreement with the opposition to reduce if the content already on street.
 
Last week the opposition insisted that the agreement is made public. Some suggested this as a condition for even on the invitation of the Cabinet in. 
 
However, among other green left and D66 to NU.nl know indeed on the invitation of the coalition. The Christian Union will of the Cabinet the main features of the agreement know, but would then have the tax reform in conversation.
 
The opposition leaders met Tuesday to discuss a joint response and possibly a debate.
 
Invitation VVD Group Chairman Halbe Zijlstra is nonchalant, however, in: "they get an invitation and I hope they come."
 
Z points out that most Parties earlier with Secretary of State Eric Wiebes (finance) have spoken on the tax reform. "I can not imagine they don't show up as the Cabinet with an invitation."
 
According to him there are enough parties with a constructive approach that should talk about the tax reform. He says he want to talk "with those parties that have put forward proposals to which we want to come".
 
Easier on the tax reform has long been spoken. The ambition is to make the system simpler. In addition, the ambition to reduce costs on labor, because this is good for employment. 
 
By the improving economy next year is there space for such a burden.
