Coalition agreement

Asked when the second agreement would be published and would the Human Rights Act appear in it, the PMS said that there would be a further Coalition document which would set out the Government’s policy programme. The precise timing of that had not yet been decided but was likely to happen in the next couple of weeks. In terms of what it would say on other issues, people would have to wait until it was published.

Asked who would be chairing the negotiations between the two wings of Government, the PMS replied that he would not get into detail on the process. There were two parties in the coalition and they would be discussing these issues. The PMS said he would not get into details about how that would be worked through.

Asked whether some of the original agreement would be reviewed or would new issues be discussed, the PMS said that the Coalition Agreement that had been published would remain; the objective here was to work through the other areas of policy that were not covered.
