DISY[/B] MP Rita Superman during the discussion of the 2023 State Budget in the Plenary Session of the Parliament referred to the unequal representation of women in decision-making centres and, as a representative of Kyrenia in the Parliament, to the consequences of the Turkish occupation, reiterating "I will not forget" she added "I will never forget".
Taking note of the unequal representation of women in the current Government, Superman noted the election of a woman as Speaker of Parliament as an important step in the process of eliminating inequalities. He referred to quota laws introduced by European states and the financial burdens on parties that do not implement quotas and in response to the argument that the most deserving women should be selected, he said it is not valid because practice has shown that not all positions and offices are held by the most deserving men.
Superman after stating that as a Kyrenia MP, she believes that the voice of Kyrenetians should be heard in parliament, said that the occupation does not only affect the displaced but affects all Cypriots regardless of their origin, as Turkish troops are in the line of confrontation with the danger looming in the free areas. He noted the ease with which some people cross the ceasefire line to make purchases, ignoring that in doing so they are reinforcing the occupation troops and the occupation and added that the government has tried to support refugees with the spending planned for 2023 and 2024.
