Members of the Parliamentary Committee on Legal Affairs have appealed to the Chief of Police and the police unions to find a compromise regarding the changes to police working hours. Despite pressure, the Chief of Police, Themis Arnautis, stated that he does not intend to suspend his decision. The Legal Affairs Committee proposed a joint meeting between the Chief and the unions to achieve labor peace. Police officers held a protest outside the Parliament building, expressing their opposition to the new regulations.
