A Dutch clique

The Dutch EU commissioner, Kroes has, for the 15th time, extended the deadline for the hiving off several parts from the Dutch banks ABN Amro and Fortis. The Dutch government now has, by the goodwill of their ex-minister, time till the 19th of October for the hiving. Bos, Dutch minister of Finance, is already several months in consultation with Deutsche Bank about the sale of HBU. Despite these consultations with Deutsche Bank and some other banks, the Dutch government hasn't been able to table a proposal about the fusion of ABN Amro and Fortis Bank Holland.
