Pensioners Protest Delay in Vote on Insurance Coverage Bill

Pensioners’ branches of PASYDY and SEK, EKYSY and the Observatory of the Third Age express strong protest over the postponement of the discussion and vote in Parliament of a bill that would amend the Motor Vehicle Insurance Law to protect pensioners from insurance denial by insurance companies. They accuse DISY of the postponement, noting that the bill had already received unanimous approval in the Committee. They call on all parties to bring the bill back to the Plenary Session and vote it urgently, as the issue affects more than 20% of the population of Cyprus and is related to equality and transparency.
