Finance Minister Eelco Heinen told the House of Representatives that the cabinet would do everything possible to introduce the new capital gains tax in 2028. He said the timetable was feasible if everyone made a maximum effort, while acknowledging the risk of postponement to 2029. The early introduction was politically important to him and was a commitment to right-wing opposition parties including JA21 and the SGP. The cabinet sent a legislative amendment for advice to the Council of State on Friday. The Council of State said it would not be able to provide its advice by the next parliamentary debate on 12 October, saying only seven days remained and that this was impossible.
