The Conservative–Liberal Democrat coalition agreement (also called The Coalition: Our Programme for Government) was a policy document drawn up following the 2010 general election in the United Kingdom. It formed the terms of reference governing the Cameron Ministry, the newly formed coalition government comprising MPs from the Conservative Party and the Liberal Democrats.〔(Conservative Liberal Democrat Coalition Agreement ) Conservative Party, 12 May 2010; Accessed 13 May 2010〕〔(Conservative Liberal Democrat Coalition Agreement ) Liberal Democrats, 12 May 2010, Accessed 13 May 2010〕 The general election resulted in a hung parliament, with no party emerging with an overall majority in the House of Commons, for the first time since February 1974. As a result, the first and third parties in terms of votes and seats, the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats respectively, entered into negotiations with the aim of forming a full coalition, the first since the Second World War. An initial agreement was published on 12 May 2010 (dated 11 May), detailing what had been agreed in the various policy areas, in order for a coalition government to be able to be formed, with a final agreement published on 20 May. ==Initial agreement== The initial agreement was published on 12 May 2010. It consisted of a seven-page document, in 11 sections. In the foreword, it stated "These are the issues that needed to be resolved between us in order for us to work together as a strong and stable government". The 11 sections were as follows: #Deficit Reduction #Spending Review – NHS, Schools and a Fairer Society #Tax Measures #Banking Reform #Immigration #Political Reform #Pensions and Welfare #Education #Relationship with the EU #Civil liberties #Environment 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Conservative–Liberal Democrat coalition agreement」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
