With a large majority, it was voted on principle by Public Administration Committee the bill to remove restrictions on registration in the special foreign voter lists.

The bill was supported by ND, PASOK, Niki, Spartans and Freedom Sailing. SYRIZA and the Hellenic Solution declared a reservation for the Plenary. He voted against the KKE.

The bill is introduced in Plenary session on Monday and after two meetings it is expected to be voted on on Tuesday.

On the side of the government are expatriate bodies

On the side of the government’s proposal to lift all the restrictions regarding the voting of Greeks abroad, the expatriate bodies that were invited by the parties to submit their views to the Parliament’s Interior Committee on Friday stood by.

This particular development follows the intention expressed on Thursday by five parties numbering 220 MPs, namely New Democracy, PASOK – KINAL, Niki, the Spartans and the Freedom Movement to vote in favor of the relevant bill, thus creating the necessary conditions in order to restore a democratic debt of about half a century.

This historic opportunity remains to be ratified next week in the Plenary of the Parliament.
