Mariya Gabriel, the GERB-SDS nominee for prime minister, said that the composition of the draft cabinet remains the same, as there is no time for changes. She confirmed that the names of the ministers will be announced on Monday. 

After a meeting between GERB, MRF and "There is Such a People", held in the office of parliamentary speaker Rosen Zhelyazkov, she also said that the three formations agreed to serve "the people and the results they want to seek with a regular government". 

In her words, the priorities they agreed upon are: a responsible and reasonable budget, stability and security in terms of salaries and payments, the rule of law, judicial reform, and a constitutional majority. The MRF and "There is Such a People" have already said they will support a GERB-SDS cabinet.
