In a written statement, the Government Spokesman, following the announcement of DISY, he responds in turn to AKEL and more specifically to today's statements by the Secretary General, Stefanos Stefanou, on measures for acrylic.
"24 hours after the announcement of the government's eleven plus three, measures to reduce the impact of the global phenomenon of price inflation, Mr. Stephanou did not see, or did not want to see, that it was a package of proposals that came after a dialogue with stakeholders in the economy and society," he said.
He adds, referring to "measures already taken or decided yesterday that amount to 1.5% of GDP, at a cost of €300 million, both horizontally and targeted where necessary: To our vulnerable fellow citizens who are most in need of support, but without risking the fiscal stability of the country".
"The AKEL Secretary General underestimates the support to pensioners and the increases to 165 thousand beneficiaries," it says, and goes on to say:
"He underestimates the one-off payment to tens of thousands of households,
He underestimates the subsidies to families for care services, and the targeted measures to reduce the cost of electricity, the support to vulnerable consumers, farmers and livestock farmers with specific programmes."
In conclusion, the Government Spokesman said that the Government continues with the same seriousness to "monitor and respond to needs with immediacy, not with predetermined recipes for petty party expediency, but with proposals that the economy and society really need in order to deal with a third, complex and difficult crisis with the same effectiveness".
