What are the key objectives for forming the Flemish Government?

Starting Wednesday  the parties will have meetings within their own groups for three days. Diependaele will use this time to create a summary document with a plan to solve all the remaining problems. They will also update the budget details during this time. Diependaele will meet with Vooruit in the morning on Saturday and then with CD&V in the afternoon. If these meetings go well  the three parties will meet again on Monday to keep talking.

The primary objective remains to have the Flemish Government fully formed and operational before the September Declaration event on September 23rd in the Flemish Parliament. If the new government isn’t ready by then  the current Flemish Minister President  Jan Jambon  is expected to give the usual speech at the September Declaration event on September 23rd at the Flemish Parliament.
