The current Rector of the University of Cyprus and the Government with the Minister of Education are not interested in the creation of university schools in Larnaca, DIKO MP Christos Orphanides said on Wednesday, speaking before the plenary session of the Parliament during the debate on the state budget for 2023, stressing that despite earlier announcements, the two sites proposed for the construction of university buildings are in no way usable. He also referred to overcrowding in Larnaca's schools, noting that the site of the Diannellian Orphanage remains unused and in a very bad state.
Regarding the health sector, Mr. Orphanides said that although the construction of the Athiyanou Health Centre, which cost 4 million euros, was completed in 2020, the clinics remain vacant, while the First Aid Department of the Larnaca Hospital is also understaffed.
Regarding the transport sector, Mr. Orphanides expressed his thanks to the Minister of Transport for the completion of the construction of the Larnaca-Dekeleia road, mentioned the need to relocate the Larnaca Postal Services due to the lack of parking spaces and the resulting traffic congestion, while he described the uncontrolled construction of berms on roads without specifications, with serious consequences for the environment and the health of residents due to pollution.
