He said the government has an important agenda and faces ‘hugely important tasks’.
He added, ‘We have a coalition government. This is a new thing for our country.’
He went on to talk about the fact that this is a government for the long-term, saying: ’The really positive thing about it is that it wants to be a government for five years. But I think in too much of our policy in recent years we have been too short-termist.
‘This gives us a huge opportunity to plan, to legislate and to regulate for the long term. To confront our big problems and get them right.’
