Voted by plenary session of Parliament the bill of the Deputy Prime Minister P. Pikrammenos entitled “Unified Authority of Public Procurement”.
The purpose of the bill is to create a single independent authority for all public procurement, which will result from the merger of the Single Independent Public Procurement Authority (EAADISY) and the Authority for the Examination of Preliminary Appeals (AEPP).
“For” At the beginning of the bill, the ND MPs were in favor and the opposition MPs were “against”, however, in most of the articles there was wider support from ND, SYRIZA and the Movement for Change.
Accepted also took place (Yes SW, No SYRIZA-KKE-Hellenic Solution-DAY25, Present Movement for Change), the amendment of Ministry of Justice which, inter alia, provides for the expansion of the scope of work of lawyers, in order to provide their legal services in terms of checking the legality of applications for registration of registered deeds in the cadastral records and the legal support of traders in all mortgage offices and the cadastral offices that fall under the responsibility of either the body “Hellenic Land Registry” or the Ministry of Justice. “In this way, the cadastral offices and the mortgage offices of the country are greatly decongested and at the same time, the legal sector is significantly strengthened, while the cases of the citizens are processed faster and with legal certainty,” said the Minister of Justice K. Tsiaras, presenting amendment.
It is noted that Mr. Bitter accepted a series of proposals submitted by opposition MPs, such as the clarification of the scope of responsibilities of the former EAADISY and AEPP, the expansion of the members of the Executive Board of EADS with full professors of Law Schools (with a subject related to public or public relations deletion of the provision on the abolition of vacancies. However, referring to the proposal of opposition MPs, such as Ch. Kastanidis (Movement for Change), for the election of the members of the new Authority with an increased majority by the competent parliamentary committee, Mr. Pikrammenos said that Rules of Procedure of the Parliament provides for a selection by the Conference of Presidents only for the constitutionally enshrined Principles, which do not include the EADS, and that, in the event of a “negative obstacle” to the Transparency parliamentary committee, would mean interfering with the autonomy of parliament. “I would prefer the Parliament itself to regulate this issue” and if that happens, I intend to bring a horizontal provision for all authorities, said Mr. Pikrammenos. He also stressed that the unification of the two authorities is the beginning of the implementation of the government’s choice to bring together “the anarchic landscape of the independent authorities”. Especially for the “malfunction” of the GDP, he said that he threatens to blow up the whole public procurement process at a time when we have the greatest need for a quick and effective control, in view of the funding from the Recovery Fund.
The rapporteur of the minority, and if. Head of Internal Affairs of SYRIZA-PS, M. Hatzigiannakis said that “the legislative improvements are moving in a positive direction for the maintenance of the responsibilities of EAADISY, the maintenance of organic positions and the expansion of persons beyond the retired judges who will staff the positions of advisors, but the major issue was not resolved and the definition of advisors and the President of the Unified Public Procurement Authority will be a party choice and not a choice of broad consensus, thus affecting the meritocracy of the Authority “.
The speaker of the Movement for Change, Harris Kastanidis said that at a time when the new Authority is going to manage hundreds of billions, the government, faithful to its past, chooses to go to party definitions of the head of this Independent -apparently- Authority, to control in the way it thinks all contracts of the public sector, whether they are works contracts, or supply or service contracts.
For sympathy of ΝΔτου SYRIZA and his Movement for Change his speaker spoke on the bill KKEM. Komninaka, noting that the most efficient and flexible operation of the Single Public Procurement Authority actually concerns the acceleration of the procedures for the promotion of investment plans for green businesses, the digital transformation, etc., ie for the distribution of the Fund’s billions. Recovery to those who are their registered recipients.
The independent authorities There are many and except for the five of the Constitution, most of them are unnecessary, said the speaker of the Hellenic Solution, A. Mylonakis and added: The thirty-eight independent authorities are excessive and bring excessive costs to the Greek people.
In theory, independent authorities should be a safeguard against abusive practices of the executive, but in practice, especially in a debt-ridden country like ours, independent authorities have the role, unfortunately, of shifting responsibility from politicians to some technocrats. and mainly play the role of custodian of the exercise of the policies imposed by the lenders, said his spokeswoman DAY25Bright Bakadima.
