"It was known that Dijk Hoff and Van der Steur were present at the ministry on the day of the resignation. But now it appears from the statement of facts that they have been on night of the News Hour program about the found receipt at the ministry."

"The question is what they have heard and seen there, and importantly. They have a say in order to deny that the amount of Nieuwsuur sometimes might knock If so, these men also sit with their fingers in the door?".

According Vullings are involved alongside Teeven Opstelten and Prime Minister Rutte more VVD. "So there's Chamber President Van Miltenburg, who pulled out a letter from a whistleblower on this issue through the shredder. And let's not forget Senator Ben Swagerman. He then joined together with Teeven the deal."

Teeven deal

The Oosting Commission is investigating the controversial deal that led to the departure of Secretary Teeven Opstelten and Minister of Justice. Teeven closed the deal in 2000 with drug criminal Cees H. at the time he was prosecutor.

TV shows Nieuwsuur made ​​based on sources within Security and Justice announced that more money is transferred to Cees H. then told before. Not 2 million guilders, but about 5 million. The Tax would have explicitly held outdoors. Teeven and Opstelten denied that.

A year later, still found the receipt by Nieuwsuur. When it was clear that it was 4.7 million. The position of Opstelten was therefore untenable and Teeven drew his conclusions.

The committee also looks at how informed the House. Opstelten showed repeatedly that there was no evidence for the controversial deal, while Nieuwsuur did manage to get the receipt above water.

The committee further the culture of the Ministry of Security and Justice examined. Prime Minister Rutte also wants to know who leaked to Nieuwsuur.

"The conclusions of the report still does not know anybody," said Vullings. "But the fact narrative that is now circulating in The Hague has been painful enough for the VVD."
