The basic principles of the government implemented by the government to combat arbitrary construction were described by the Minister of Environment and Energy, Theodoros Skylakakis, speaking today (20/2) on the SKAI television station. “If we do not end with the new arbitrariness, we will never have urban planning policy,” he said.

“The new law predicts – on my own initiative – that the new arbitrary is first demolished. The last one is first … only in the forests, integrated arbitrary real estate can reach up to 90,000. We have millions of legalizations. Because we never decided to end with the new arbitrariness. And we were in a vicious circle that there are so many arbitrary that we cannot deal with. What we do now is to finish with the new arbitrariness, to gain urban policy and to regulate or face – as they can be regulated and tackled – and the issues of the past“The minister explained.

At the same time, according to a statement from the ministry, Mr Skylakakis responded to how to make the end of the new arbitrariness – meaning anything arbitrary now and in the future – with the use of new technology. “We will compare satellite photos before and after. Automatically, with artificial intelligence will be highlighted by any new construction made throughout Greece, of any kind, eg wall, etc. and then automatically, through e-ribs will find out whether what was built is licensed or not. And whatever is not licensed, it will be checked“

Mr. Skylakakis added that “Until now the checks were carried out through complaints or if the urban planning was awake and went to check some arbitrary. That was no longer awake … We will have a complete record of new arbitrators across the country, every time they are. This is what we do in Mykonos now, manually. I have instituted and the Inspectors of the Inspector and Auditors of the Ministry of Environment and Energy have been installed and installed, who will not leave the island before they end with this story. We check anything new has been built in the last year, whether or not it has a complaint. And we also look at the complaints that for a long time the urban planning had left without control“

Mr. Skylakakis also described the procedure provided by law if the auditors find some arbitrariness. “If someone gets a fine, he has 30 days to tear down. If it does not demolish in 30 days, there is continuous proliferation of the fines. And then come administrative and criminal penalties. At the same time, the process that leads to demolition begins. “

Referring to the Construction attempt in Sarakiniko, he said: “To Sarakiniko The licenses came out illegally. Because Milos’ urban planning, re -looking at the license, which comes out of the engineer, discovered that he had irregularities. And she has canceled it. We will look for her for other reasons“

As stated in the announcement, he commented on a question about current prices: “The current has very high prices in Europe. Greece has been made by an import country, export, to a small extent, but it is important at this time. It is something that has allowed us to keep prices constant, at a level that is not too high. We have values ​​equivalent to October – November and at the same time give minor subsidies. My feeling is that by heading towards spring and as many new RES come into the system – only 2GW of RES – we will go to a downward price course, but we must of course see what will happen in Europe, because things there It’s hard. “
