  • [01] Draft bill on prior actions for loan tranche, recapitalisation tabled in Parliament

    A draft bill legislating the prior actions Greece and its lenders agreed to before the country receives a 2-bln-euro loan tranche and 10 billion euros to recapitalise its banks was tabled in Parliament early on Wednesday morning

    The bill includes measures that will replace tax revenues from a controversial 23% VAT tax on private schools, such as a fee on state lottery fill-out forms and a special consumer tax on wine.

    Other provisions will no longer oblige owners to pay tax on uncollected rents (provided a court order has been issued against a renter), and will extend the repayment period for each installment of a debt whose holder is on a 100-installment payment plan.

    [02] Lesvos receives 33 tons of humanitarian aid from two German organizations

    Thirty three tons of humanitarian aid for both refugees and locals was delivered to the municipality and the hospital on the island of Lesvos on Tuesday, by two German organizations

    The aid includes four tons of medical supplies for the needs of the hospital of Mytilene, the island's health centers and the "Mother of God" Foundation, as well as 29 tons of food - such as baby food, milk - and diapers. The organizationa alos donated medical equipment to monitor pregnant women, as well as clothes which were sent to the foundation.

    The entire humanitarian aid was collected by the organization "Human plus" and "A heart for children", which belongs to the group that issues the German newspaper "Bild".
