The cabinet led by Prime Minister Dick Schoof has passed fewer legislative proposals in its first 336 days compared to all four governments led by Mark Rutte. A similar number of proposals were adopted only by the Rutte I cabinet, which was supported by Geert Wilders’ PVV.

The New Social Contract (NSC) party ministers have been the most productive within the Schoof cabinet, successfully pushing through eighteen legislative proposals. This surpasses the PVV and VVD, each with eight, and the BBB, with three. This difference can be attributed to the NSC’s presence in the Ministry of Finance, where ministers are responsible for budget-related proposals.

However, not all adopted legislative proposals hold significant weight. Some, like one from Minister Marjolein Faber (Asylum and Migration), involved only linguistic adjustments and minor improvements to existing legislation rather than policy changes. Furthermore, two crucial proposals from the PVV, concerning asylum emergency measures and the reintroduction of the two-status system, are still under consideration.

Even if the remaining 49 submitted legislative proposals from the Schoof cabinet are approved, the overall influence of the current government remains limited. The Rutte cabinets submitted significantly more proposals during their tenures, with the majority being adopted by the House of Representatives.
