Government Hesitates on Kapodistriakon University Housing in Larnaca

An impasse exists regarding the housing of schools of the National Kapodistrian University of Athens in Larnaca, due to legal obstacles concerning the use of the Multifunctional Center for Social Welfare and Employment (former Community Center). The site is located on state forest land, which is subject to strict regulations. Local authorities are requesting the declassification of the plots, but the government, through the Ministry of Agriculture, Rural Development and Environment, appears hesitant, citing the need for clarification at the legal level. The Minister has requested an opinion from the Attorney General, while AKEL is calling for the process to be expedited.
