The first meeting with the President and the members of the Advisory Council following its establishment by the Council of Ministers took place today at the Presidential Palace, under the chairmanship of the President of the Republic, Mr.Nicos Christodoulides. Constantinos Letibiotis said, among other things, that the discussion held during the meeting was very constructive, noting that the President of the Republic considers it very important for the Advisory Council to start its work as soon as possible.
He added that, next Monday, the Advisory Council will meet for the first time to discuss practical issues related to its operation.
He also said that with the functioning of the Advisory Council, selections for appointments will be made, initially in the 11 semi-governmental organisations, through an open and transparent process based on merit criteria.
He added that its functioning will contribute to the promotion of meritocracy, something that society demands and the President of the Republic places very high on his priorities.
Asked whether there will be changes in the Boards of Directors of the semi-governmental organisations before the end of their term of office, the Spokesman said that the President of the Republic has not yet decided.
Finally, he said that the Government's goal is for the Boards of Directors of the semi-governmental organisations to become even more productive and contribute to the implementation of the Government's work.
