[PIO] The President of the Republic received the Commissioner for Legislation

The President of the Republic Mr. Nicos Christodoulides received today, at the Presidential Palace, the Commissioner for Legislation Mrs. Louisa Christodoulides Zannettou, who presented him with her annual report.

Handing over the report, the Commissioner said that it records what has been done so far from 2019 onwards, with emphasis on the last year.

Receiving the report, the President said he would study it and added that "in the context of today's meeting, there are some other issues related to the Commissioner's responsibilities that I would like to go into.

The first one concerns your assistance for direct cooperation with the Secretary of the Council of Ministers in preparing a legislative framework concerning the associates of the President of the Republic, the Ministers and Deputy Ministers and the Government Spokesperson, which I want to complete immediately.

The second one concerns the need to modernize the legislation. There are many laws that are from the colonial period that need to be modernised, so I expect a recommendation from you.

And the third one is about the Code of Conduct for members of the Council of Ministers, taking into account the recommendations of GRECO. Immediately, in the near future, to come to the Cabinet for adoption and to be followed by all.

I look forward to our close cooperation and I am sure that our goals are common. I consider your role particularly important, precisely so that we can also send meaningful messages to society through actions, which will emerge through our cooperation."
