After the end of the legislative work of the Parliament, Mr. Damianou wondered what the Government intends to do, which says that semi-governmental organizations are arms of government policy. He was asked if he wants to shut down RIK, KOA or other parastatals whose budget for 2024 has not yet been submitted to Parliament.
He said that he is constitutionally unable to understand how they can now consider budgets that will possibly be submitted on February 29, which is the last day even for the tithes given for the first two months of the year, so that the specific Organizations can operate.
“So I think the executive branch should see what they are going to do with their house but they are irreparably exposed, as are the workers in these organizations and those who have contracts with these organizations”, he said.
The Speaker of the House Annita Dimitriou stated that she completely agrees and pointed out that this is not the responsibility of the House of Representatives. He wished that they would not experience moments this year where people remain unpaid or when a semi-governmental organization cannot function. budgets are submitted. Totally unacceptable and the executive power is completely exposed,” he noted.
