Early House of Representatives elections will take place in the Netherlands on 22 November next. A total of 26 parties have submitted their lists of candidates for the House of Representatives elections. In the party manifestos, the political parties formulate their plans for the future of the Netherlands, and directly or indirectly shape cross-border cooperation and the development of border regions.
