Prime Minister George Papandreou received a letter from sixteen members of the parliament, who demand that the new set of measures that Greece will agree with Troika, to be debated properly by the party and the Parliament.
They want to discuss the below issues:
1. One year report of Memorandum
2. Mid-term/ additional measures 2011- denationalization
3. Process of debate and vote of the measures in the House
In the letter the members of the parliament say that ”A year after signing the memorandum, we are at a crucial juncture again. Why? It is not just an issue of political responsibility; logic demands that we have an evaluation. It is a question of patriotism, democracy and responsibility.” They also emphasize that ”It is the most basic proof that we respect the votes of our citizens.”
If PASOK this week presents its fiscal plan as one article in order to prevent Parliament voting on it article by article, this would make many members of the parliament and other lawmakers vote against specific aspects of the draft law.
