During the meeting, the President said that the presence of the students had left an excellent impression on the Parliament. In fact, the attitude, diligence and interest of the students during their two months in Parliament have demonstrated that the younger generation is unfairly accused of staying away from the public and socio-political affairs. Furthermore, she pointed out that the House of Representatives is and will remain on the side of young people, expressing her conviction that the students participating in the programme are the best ambassadors and ambassadresses of the parliamentary body of Cyprus. Finally, she said that the channel of communication between the Parliament and young people will remain open through their participation in other parliamentary activities.

The students expressed their sincere thanks to the President of the Parliament for her initiative to create the internship programme, which offered them a unique experience, giving them the opportunity to get to know the functioning of the Parliament, to come into contact both with Members of Parliament and with officials from Parliament's services, as well as with government officials and Commissioners who, as part of the programme, presented the role of their service or office. In addition, they said that the experiences they gained were invaluable and that they got to know a different aspect of the parliament and how it works and left the programme with the best impressions. Finally, they thanked the President and the rest of the House for their willingness to listen to their views and concerns during the scheduled meetings with them. Anita Demetriou handed over certificates of attendance to the students who participated in the programme.
