Letter to the Speaker of the Parliament Anita Demetriou on the Bills for the New Public and Wider Public Sector Pension Scheme, sent by Stratis Matthaiou, Secretary General of PASYDY.
In the letter, which was also circulated to the political leaders of the parliamentary parties, Mr. Matthaiou, representing the organisations OHO (SEK), SIDHEKEK (PEO), PASYDY, DEOK, PDED, OELMEK, OLTEK, and Associations of Police and Fire Brigade, expressed the expectation that these bills would be passed by the plenary session of the Parliament, on December 2 in order to implement the agreements signed by the trade unions with the State from 2021 and to solve the major problem of supplementary pension insurance that directly affects tens of thousands of workers.
"In the same above framework we look forward that no amendments will be tabled that may lead to the referral of Legislation, which in fact should and can be reconsidered, after March 2023, when the House of Representatives will reopen," he said and expressed the belief that all issues were exhaustively discussed through months of debates before the relevant Parliamentary Committee on Finance and Budget.
He concluded by saying that the Organizations look forward to the cooperation and concurrence of the House to ensure that the Bills on the new Pension Law are approved and implemented immediately without the delays in order to remove the agony and uncertainty of thousands of colleagues who have remained uninsured for over a decade with regard to securing their pension rights.
