The first line of her statement after her meeting with the Queen at midday was
"I have just been to see Her Majesty the Queen, and I will now form a government"
So I assume she was given permission to form a minority govt. -
I'm not sure we actually see one... I can't remember what happened last time.
^^ aah @Sumo - that's what happened

If it's a formal coalition then it's enough seats for a majority government, otherwise she can form a minority govt with the Queen's approval. The wording in her statement isn't clear but I think it's a minority govt with DUP agreeing to help vote things through for them.
