It is with great patience that we watch with great patience the course of populism and nihilism that AKEL is following. They promote and demand the full restoration of the institution of ATA, forgetting that it is their own government that in 2012 abolished the acquired rights of workers.
Ignoring, in fact, at the same time, that the present government restored ATA - in 2017, following an agreement of the social partners, including the PSEO, it was agreed to pay 50% of the workers' right to ATA.
AKEL also fails to acknowledge that it is the present government, through the minister in charge, that has provoked the dialogue to find a consensual solution for the benefit of both workers and the development path of the country.
