    [01] Agriculture Minister - Earth Day

    Nicosia, Apr 22 (CNA) -- Cyprus plans to spend over 600 million pounds in the coming decade to harmonise its institutions relating to the environment with European Union regulations, Minister of Agriculture, Natural Resources and the Environment Costas Themistocleous said here today (one pound is about two US dollars).

    He also said Cyprus will work very hard to ensure that environmental issues do not get in the way of the country's accession course, adding that for the first time Cyprus is going to get EU funds for its pre-accession process.

    Nicosia, Apr 22 (CNA) -- The recent heavy rainfall in Cyprus has not changed much in the present situation as far as available water resources are concerned, Minister of Agriculture, Natural Resources and the Environment Costas Themistocleous said here today.

    "We are very happy there was so much rain in the past few days but rainfall since October last year covers only 67 per cent of the average rainfall," he told a press conference.
