Andris Kulbergs, the candidate for prime minister of Latvia, who represents the political force AS, plans to present two things in upcoming talks with potential government partners. One is a short plan for change; the other is a new model for how the government works.

What the proposal involves

The aim of the model, according to the available information, is to set out more clearly what responsibility the Cabinet of Ministers, the executive branch, and the Saeima, Latvia's parliament, would each bear in carrying out national reforms. No other elements of the plan or the model have been disclosed so far.

Why it matters

Kulbergs has not yet been confirmed as prime minister, so his proposal will be one of the items potential coalition partners weigh when considering cooperation. Whether they will accept the model is not yet known.

It has also not been made public which parties will take part in the talks, when they will be held, or what specific points the plan for change will contain.
