[JUL. 12 02:22GMT NETHERLANDS: GOVERNMENT, IMMIGRATION MINISTRY TO FORTUYN PARTY]

(ANSA) - AMESTERDAM, 12 LUG - Nel nuovo governo olandese di centro-destra il dicastero dell'immigrazione andra' alla Lista Pim Fortuyn' (Lpf), il partito anti-immigrati che ha preso il nome del leader populista assassinato lo scorso maggio. [In the new center-right Dutch government, the ministry of immigration will go to the List Pim Fortuyn (LPF), the anti-immigration party that has taken the name of the populist leader who was assassinated last May.] Lo hanno deciso to ieri sera a Amsterdam i partiti della nuova maggioranza guidata dal leader cristiano democratico Peter Balkenende in una riunione in cui e' stata finalizzata la ripartizione dei 14 dicasteri del nuovo governo. [This was decided yesterday evening by the parties of the new majority led by Christian Democratic leader Peter Balkenende at a meeting in which the assignment of the 14 ministries of the new government was decided.] Lo 'Lpf' e i liberali del Vvd avranno quattro ministeri a testa mentre gli altri, secondo quanto e' stato annunciato al termine dell'incontro, andranno ai cristiano-democratici del Cda. [LPF and the liberal VVD will each have four ministries, while the rest will go to the Christian Democrat CDA party, according to what was announced at the end of the meeting.] Il partito di Fortuyn si era impegnato a chiudere le frontiere agli immigrati ma e' stato costretto ad ammorbidire la sua posizione dai partner della coalizione di governo. [Fortuyn's party had called for closing the borders to immigrants, but it was forced to soften its position by its partners in the coalition.](ANSA).

I heard the VVD could get Argiculture, so there could be lesser changes.
