Prime Minister Mark Rutte said to want to raise the grievances of the no-voters in European colleagues. As anticipate the talks on anything, the government will not ratify the association agreement, the prime minister said in April in the Senate.

Before the summer recess of the House, which begins on July 8, the government wants to come up with an official response to the outcome of the referendum. It takes so long, partly because the government wanted to wait until after the referendum in Britain on EU membership. That found on June 23 instead.
