Bill: Equal Coalition Act

| Each party should be able to propose a cabinet coalition as they feel. The current law is giving preference to the largest parties to form government, that isn't fair. If smaller parties have enough seats to form government without including the largest party, they should be able to do so. |

| Message | We would vote yes to this one. Apparently the current law only allows the largest PARTY (as opposed to "parties") to draft a Cabinet proposal. |
