[01] Gov't will bring comprehensive solution to NPLs, FinMin Tsakalotos
tells Parliament during bill debate
ANA-MPA - The government will have a comprehensive solution to offer for
non-performing ("red") loans by January 1, 2016, Finance Minister Euclid
Tsakalotos said late on Wednesday, during the debate in Parliament on
the second package of prior actions demanded by Greece's creditors,
adding that it will include protection of a family's main residence.
Tsakalotos said among other things that the negotiation team from Greece
was united and all difficulties were faced as a team, regardless of
who chaired it, but Greece had to deal with people who insisted on
a particular viewpoint. Addressing the main opposition New Democracy
deputies and those of PASOK, he said that all those who were talking
about a Grexit before national elections "should look at their own
responsibility for the bank run."
Asked whether the directive for a fund to help the banking system in
Greece would be really useful, he said yes, and referred to specific
parts that related to the guarantee of deposits and the supervision of
the mechanism returning the economy to a healthy path. "Depositors may
feel greater security," he said, adding that the draft bill's provisions
were a good start.
