There remain unclear many issues, Like pricing policy, asset management issues, and what will happen to employees.
“And in this regard, the government is very arrogant. Instead of discussing and co -ordinating with those of you who are experiencing the problem and receivers arrhythmias, Mr Mitsotakis’ government once again makes decisions and announces them in absentia of local government. “
Concerning the merger of Municipal Water and Sewerage Enterprises, the President of the PASOK Change, emphasized that in this case “the government also chooses a blackmail rather than that of dialogue with self-government”.
“We have another perception, we give priority to energy issues and water management,” Mr Androulakis noted.

We hope we do not need to use constitutional solutions and appeals to the courts.

All of this shapes a very difficult picture of the goals set by our own country, so that we can go through a recycling that will exceed 60% and a final burial that will be below 20% . These goals, however, cannot be achieved, if the ministry does not talk to the scope of self -government -and especially with the first degree -to understand the problems, anxieties and distortions that cause the legislation that is attempted to pass her dedication. “
