Once again, the party of the left criticises the government for its stance on accuracy, calling on it to stop making excuses.
Specifically, in a statement, AKEL's head of the economy sector Haris Polykarpou said that at a time when Cyprus is a champion in the increase of electricity prices, the government and Synergy are once again invoking the past - as they like to present it - instead of planning for the future.
"At a time when one after another European countries are gaining exemptions to the European Union in order to relieve their economies, the government and the Coalition, instead of solutions, find an excuse for every problem."
He adds that in the face of the Anastasiades - Coalition government's inability to deal with accuracy, AKEL is not looking for excuses. "It will continue to stand on the side of society and workers with concrete proposals and initiatives."
In his statement he lists three AKEL proposals.
Second, with the law proposal it has already tabled to abolish double taxation on fuel, by abolishing the imposition of VAT on excise duty.
Third, insisting that the reduction of VAT on electricity from 19% to 9% be extended for as long as the extremes of the economy remain.
