President Rosen Plevneliev is to have talks with the eight parties that entered the legislature as early as October 15, or next Wednesday, Presidency sources say.

A date for the first session of Parliament is to be set during the meeting.

It is most likely for Plevneliev to call the 43rd National Assembly a week later, on October 22, but October 29 is also a plausible date, daily 24 Chasa says, citing the sources.

Bulgaria's interim government, which has been in office since August 6, is to submit its resignation a day after Parliament is called, but there is no deadline for the National Assembly to approve it.  

A government mandate will be handed out to GERB, the largest party after the early elections, before the resignation is voted by lawmakers.
