The coordination and planning of the next actions for the promotion of projects, measures and actions for the revitalization of the area of Tillyria, was the aim of the first meeting of the Interministerial Committee, which was convened by the Minister of Interior Mr. Constantinos Ioannou, at the Presidential Palace.
This meeting of the Inter-ministerial Committee, which was established on the basis of a recent Cabinet Decision, was chaired by the Minister of Interior and attended by the Minister of Finance, the Minister of Energy, Trade and Industry, the Minister of Agriculture, Rural Development and Environment, the Minister of Education, Sports and Youth, the Deputy Minister of Tourism, the Deputy Minister to the President, as well as other officials.
During the meeting, the Minister of Interior said that the aim is for interventions in the region of Tillyria to be coordinated and combined by all the relevant Ministries and Deputy Ministries of the State, in order to promote targeted measures and policy actions to address population depopulation and general revitalization of the region. The Ministry of Interior, Mr. Ioannou noted, will coordinate the preparation of an action plan that will create prospects for retaining the existing population and attracting new residents, as well as strengthening the communities of Tillyria, so that they become centres of tourist, cultural, agricultural and environmental development.
The meeting discussed various issues facing the distressed region of Tillyria due to its geographical isolation, its remoteness and the special conditions created by the Turkish invasion, while recommendations were made by the competent Ministers and Deputy Ministers to encourage development.
At the end of the Committee's meeting, it was decided that the competent Ministers and Deputy Ministers should evaluate internally, with their competent departments and services, the package of proposals from the study prepared, as well as the proposals and requests submitted by the community leaders, in order to formulate their own proposals for actions - measures.
It was also decided to reconvene the Committee in about a month, to present these actions - measures, which will then make up the Action Plan for the revitalization of the area of Tillyria, which will be presented around the month of October.
