V-100
Since 2017, the so-called V-100 takes place after Accountability Day. The V stands for Accountability and the number 100 represents the hundred citizens that the Chamber invites to critically review the annual reports of the ministers. The goal of the V-100 is to directly involve citizens in the oversight task of the Chamber. Participants in the V-100 have the opportunity that day to formulate questions about the annual reports of the ministries, based on pre-selected themes. This year, the V-100 was held on Monday, May 26. The theme was Implementation of government policy. The House of Representatives invited citizens and entrepreneurs who have direct contact with one or more public service providers.
