The DP caucus in parliament has created a task force of 6 members in charge of negotiating with political parties and coalitions in parliament on the formation of the new government, and appointed MP M.Batchimeg as head of the task force.
The task force is having its first meeting with political parties and coalition in parliament today, November 26th.
New PM Ch.Saikhanbileg called for cooperation with political parties and coalitions with seats in parliament. The parties and coalitions responded differently to the call from the PM. The Mongolian People's Party scheduled a conference to discuss the issue on Friday, November 28th , while the Justice Coalition in parliament decided to review the issue in its caucus meeting.
Though the parties have yet to reach a decision on whether or not to work with the new government, MPs in parliament have already started their campaigns to bid for cabinet minister. The new government is expected to have 13 ministries, and only 15 people will hold positions in the government; the PM, Deputy PM and 13 cabinet ministers
