WRITTEN QUESTION

 

To: the Minister for the Environment and Energy

 

Subject: Eighty-fifty million (750 million euros), the euro's "account" of the incapacity of Mr. Tsipras.

 

Unbelievable and true. While Greece is thirsty for investment and the unemployed are demanding jobs that are duly remunerated, the inadequacy of Mr Tsipras' government is in danger of sending an incredible bill of 750,000,000 euros to the brutal taxpayer Greeks.

 

According to press reports, the company that has invested in the ruins of Halkidiki, asks the Greek State, through an out-of-court application, to pay her the sum of 750,000,000 due to the delayed issue by the relevant Minister of Environment and Energy, Mr. Stathakis, permits relating to the investment.

 

In the same articles, it is noted that the relevant RIS departments have approved the environmental studies of the project, the CoE has stated 18 times in favor of the investment and the last arbitration invoked by the state has condemned the investor.

 

It is noted that this development is not only a question but also a concern because of the importance of investing in the wider region, as more than 2,000 people work in this investment, and many others are expected to work in the future if the investment proceeds.

 

Because the government is brutally taxing all Greeks and especially the poor on a daily basis, since it reduces the tax-free allowance to lose a salary even with an income of 600 euros a month,

 

Because it is unheard of and paradoxical for the Greek state to have revenue from investment, the government of Mr Tsipras is threatened with hundreds of millions of euros in compensation payments to investors,

 

Because thousands of workers in Skouries in Halkidiki are afraid of their jobs and hundreds of others are waiting to be hired,

 

Because yesterday's response from the Ministry of Energy and the Environment was that the investor's request would be considered,

 

The competent minister is therefore asked to:

 

1. What steps has the Minister taken to prevent the Greek State from paying EUR 750,000,000 to the investor?

 

2. Why did not the relevant permits have been issued with the result that the Greek State is threatened with hundreds of millions of euros in damages?

 


The MP
