The DIKO contributed constructively to the legislative work of recent years, strengthening the Cypriot economy, social cohesion and individual freedoms, The party's MP Panicos Leonidou said in his speech before the plenary session of the Parliament during the debate on the 2023 state budget.
Leonidou focused on the future of the country's youth, which, he said, requires a coherent and visionary support policy that gives the opportunity and perspective for professional rehabilitation, as well as incentives for young people to start a family. For this reason, he continued, DIKO agrees with the proposals of Nikos Christodoulides, such as the need to link education with the labour market, the strengthening of the institution of Vocational Guidance from the first year of high school, the pilot implementation of the institution of Technical High School and the upgrading of the Post-secondary Institutes of Vocational Education and Training (MIEEK).
On the growing, as he described it, problem of the ongoing migratory flows, Mr. Leonidou said that if the current situation continues, it will become uncontrollable, adding that for this reason, DIKO adopts the proposals announced by Nicos Christodoulides for intensifying security at the crossing points and especially at the green line, speeding up the examination of asylum applications with the appropriate staffing of services, tightening penalties for traffickers and reviewing the subsidy policy.
