Prime Minister David Cameron and Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg have published a full Coalition Agreement.

The agreement acts as a clear programme for the Coalition Government in thirty one different areas of policy.

Writing in the foreword, Cameron and Clegg described it as "an historic document in British politics".

"The first time in over half a century two parties have come together to put forward a programme for partnership government. As our parties have worked together it has become increasingly clear to us that, although there are differences, there is also common ground".

They said that it is a programme for five years of partnership government driven by the values freedom, fairness and responsibility.

"We believe that it can deliver radical, reforming government, a stronger society, a smaller state, and power and responsibility in the hands of every citizen. Great change and real progress lie ahead", they added.
