On Tuesday (10/6) the government spokesman was hosted on Tuesday (10/6), Paul Marinakisheralding the implementation of the automated penalties and basketball system in view of the new season, and also referred to the amendment of sports law.
In detail what the government spokesman said:
“In short, we go back a year, when the phenomenon we had to deal with, the problem we had to deal with was even more serious, because it had to do with the physical integrity of the people who went to the stadium, fathers, moms, children, those who go? Because the issue had been raised again, because we had the murder of a new police officer and a few months ago, we had the murder of a fan, by foreign and domestic hooligans or who were neither the first unfortunately, nor the last bad news we had heard. Tragic news. So what did we do? We made some decisions that seem to work.
That is, entry identification, cameras and go to the third, automated penalties. That is, what has changed beyond that there was the will and the result of the cameras, to confirm the entrance, so we know who it is where and we have the corresponding penalties. We entered a logic of automated penalties because we saw that the more the human factor was reduced, that is, the subjective crisis, the more effective it is. That is, a flare on the pitch, a second time, two racing and simply the committee responsible, DEAV, finds it.
So let’s go to basketball now and how this is connected. Why did the government intervene? The government can neither impose or impose penalties, is not athletic justice, nor can it decide whether an arbitration is good or bad, it has no such competence, neither in basketball, nor in football, nor anywhere. The government saw last week, about 10 days ago, that there was a very high risk of escaping the situation and this is also a risk to people who go to the stadium and therefore there was an intervention to ensure the smooth run, as it did. That is, there was no danger on one stadium and on the other for the fans who went with their children on the pitch. But there is another issue that is arising. We do not hide the problems under the carpet and it has to do with behaviors, either of factors or players.
Here to tell you this. What can we do and what we cannot do. What we can’t. We cannot decide “A” or “B” punishment. The punishments, that is, are administrative decisions, which are the result of judges of judges and judgments. Of each judge, who has the specific service and the responsibility. No government in the world can make the “a” or “b” decision.
This is a given and will never change, because we are a favored state. What can we do. Taking as an example of what worked on the stadiums, in terms of the safety of the fans and the players of the games, the logic of the automated penalty, we want to extend this, is processing a corresponding plan by the Deputy Minister of Sports, and Mr. G. That is, the administrative agents, coaches, athletes and so on. Not whether it is a phase of steps or aggressive or defensive foul. This is not disciplinary behavior. When he makes a gesture in the stand, when there is a lane … “.
To amend the sport law: “The Deputy Minister of Sport is working on a plan, so that we can amend the law and increase the logic of the automated sentence much more. That is to say, the jurisdiction of a judge to impose a sentence, to find in many more cases that something happened, that is, if for example some specific gestures are made, I say example, at the moment, then we will have a racing, two racing. Why do you go into the discussion, he did so, did it otherwise? Gave a technical penalty, gave disqualifie ».
For who will be punished: In general, I think all this must be personalized. As much as possible. Do not pay for the rest of the athletes and the other players in the team, the coaches, the people who go to the stadium. That is, if a behavior is individual, the right thing is to have an individual penalty. But in order not to get into the case and not to do something fragmentary, to tell you that it is something that Mr Vroutsis is working as a priority, to start the new year and to have the legal framework that is applied for the safety of the stadiums and an up -to -date context for the behavior of the people. Factors, coaches, players and others.
What exists in response is that the lawsuit has been subsequently filed, first and second, I do not hide my words, the autopsy procedure is by law, if there is a lawsuit. From the time a lawsuit is filed until the next day at 12pm, the police have to look for the sue. The police I imagine that they did this and from there, the reason was not found is perhaps because this was not possible. I don’t think there are citizens of two and three categories.
First of all, in the first case, this is what we want to change, not that there is no filter, that is, there is no filter for a politician, we mean minister and deputy minister here. It is the law on the responsibility of ministers related to Article 86 of the Constitution and a number of provisions others, which is why we want this filter now, after the constitutional review and provided that other parties support it, to get in 180, not to be the result of party correlations. That is, the filter is a filter that is for example from a judiciary, whether or not a lawsuit should proceed. There should always be a filter in other countries and in other countries, because it is understood there are vengeful lawsuits against politicians.
But no I have 155 in the House, so “my minister saves it”. So we come, as well as the deadline we have abolished and is now assimilated, we all have the same limitation, so we want to change it. Now, obviously there are no other laws on factors. We say it clearly. The answer given is that the lawsuit was filed after the factor left. I do not have to dispute, neither the judicial officers nor the police officers who were there in the field and the message is clear: everything that is done for all others must be done for the factors. And at disciplinary level and criminal level ».
