Pensioners' Protest over Postponement of Insurance Coverage Bill Vote

Pensioner organizations (PASYDY, SEK, EKYSY, and the Observatory for the Third Age) express strong protest over the postponement of the vote on a bill that would facilitate insurance coverage for citizens. The postponement, according to the organizations, was made at the request of DISY, despite unanimous agreement in the committee to approve the bill. The law would amend the Motor Vehicles (Third Party Liability Insurance) Law to prevent insurance companies from refusing insurance requests, enhancing transparency and equality. The organizations call on parties to bring the bill back to the plenary session of the Parliament for a vote.
