The German Wikipedia seems to have made a decent attempt at this article:

In the German Wikipedia we found out, that the so called Bakker-Schut-Plan was kind of unimportant. There were plans for annexations in the Gouvernment of the Netherland, but this Bakker-Schut-Plan was not official or pionting the way. In my opinion someone tried to create a kind of key word for decreasing the German responsibility. (Something like: "Maybe the Germans were bad but the others were to. Look what the Netherlands tried to do with the "Bakker-Schut-Plan".) So I suggest that you change the Lemma to something similar like the German or Netherlandian article, someting like "Plan for annexations by the Netherlands after WWII" and make some changes to the text.
Bakker-Schut was a member of the official Dutch state commission, ordered to specify more general plans: he had the task to work these out in detail. So it was an official plan, in principle part of the official and overt Dutch policy between 1946 and 1949. However, it's true the Dutch government was internally divided over the issue. And we Dutch are of course no better than the other Germans :o).--MWAK 09:12, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
