The municipal council of Dronten demanded improvements from the municipal executive after motions and council commitments had remained unresolved for years. Leefbaar Dronten and PRO Dronten said the council had not been adequately informed about delays. They pointed to a five-year-old motion on appointing a municipal ombudsman, as well as motions concerning the preservation of a wall artwork in the Open Hof church, the arts and culture policy plan, traffic in Swifterbant and the development of the Mayor Dekker Sports Park. The parties called for a standard for timely implementation and for an update by 1 January on outstanding motions and commitments, including reasons and concrete completion dates for items that remained unfinished. The VVD co-submitted the motion, which was supported by the CDA, Christian Union and D66.

The executive said it had reviewed the outstanding motions and that 94 had still been open, although many had since been recorded as completed. More than 30 remained pending, largely as part of ongoing policy or implementation processes. Mayor Jean Paul Gebben said the executive supported the motion, apologized on its behalf and acknowledged that it had communicated extremely poorly. He said he would oversee a catch-up effort and work to restore the council's confidence. Dronten Sociaal was the only party not to support the motion, saying the promised catch-up and an information letter to the council were sufficient.
