For administrative misconducts that, as he thinks, the boundaries of the criminal offense and the administration of OPEKEPE – in particular – in the period 2022 – 2023, said Dimitra Halikia, a former Vice President of OPEKE in 2012-2014, speaking to SKAI. “The president was then Evangelos Simandrakos,” he noted. “At that time, there was a network of relationships and roles that raises serious questions of transparency and accountability, as well as a good management of Community resources. And when I say Community resources, I am not just talking about the Agricultural Fund for the Agricultural Guarantee and the Rural Development Fund, which are coming to the new implications of that period, around 45 million and relate to the Rural Development Fund, but I am talking about it for the first time, and I say it for the first time. He noted that this is the first time he says that there is a piece of funding from the NSRF for a specific contract, “which was signed in 2023 with a process that for us (in the NSRF) is unprecedented. Of course, the legislation allows it on the condition of the consent of the National Public Procurement Authority. “

Asked if he has evidence of what he said, he replied in the affirmative. “The National Public Procurement Authority gave the agreement. It made a great impression on me because it is an excellent service and I crossed that the suggestion with the president’s signature to the National Public Procurement Authority reports one of the three conditions that the Authority could give him the approval. Therefore, the principle of good faith gives him approval, proceeds with this process and then the contract has proceeded. It is a high contract of 700,000 euros, for a software that is the famous 2022 payments software, which has never been delivered, never received, and that’s why I’m 100% sure. And therefore, OPEKEPE at that time, with the main responsibility and signatures – I also have the protocols in front of me – by Mr. Simandrakos to the District Departments, calls for the immediate payment of the 2022 advance while having a letter in front of him – which I also

Continuing, he added: “There is also something else I found administratively, that while the European Commission is returning with letters of letters regarding the parcel recognition system, that is, for grazing land, Mr. Simandrakos replies that the European Union’s findings for the AGRI The Greek authorities find them unfounded and that they believe that no danger is there for the fund. In addition to saying this without the agreement of the State Legal Council, it is inconceivable to go to a commander, an employee, vice -president of bilateral with the European Commission – AGRI – without the State Legal Council … Apart from that, for what he thought there was no problem for us, Theme. ” He also estimated that other fines would come.

In the meantime, he said that he believes that political leadership could not know these, because “when we get to payments, ministers – and very reasonably – are extremely anxious about what will happen with payment. So what do they expect from their services and OPECEPE? To say, ” Minister, we’re okay. We have done the sinking, we have made the intersections, we are okay to pay. ” If you go to the minister and tell him ” I have nothing to pay ”, I think there will be a very serious issue. Anyone who wants to “save” his position and look like it can do whatever he wants without any approval of the minister, I declare it to you responsibly. “

“OPEKEPE has accountability at the ministry at the Minister of Rural Development. But it happens some administrations or some senior officials, not to do the right accountability, “he added. For pastures he noted that we have been paying fines since 2011.
