EDEK: Appointment of Criminal Investigators, Abolition of the Fund and Publication of Contributions

EDEK is calling on the President of the Republic to take specific transparency measures regarding the controversial video and the Social Support Fund. Specifically, it requests the appointment of independent criminal investigators to investigate possible criminal offenses by the individuals appearing in the video. Furthermore, EDEK demands the publication of contributions made to the Social Support Fund, despite relevant legal provisions to the contrary. It believes that transparency is essential to restore public trust. The party also proposes the abolition of the Social Support Fund and the transfer of its mission and funds to the Cyprus State Scholarships Foundation. This will ensure that funds are used in a more efficient and transparent manner. EDEK emphasizes that these measures must be taken immediately in order to address the concerns raised and demonstrate the government's commitment to transparency and accountability.
