ND proposes examining committee for third memorandum

The committee should also investigate whether there was a plan for the country’s exit from the euro

Main opposition New Democracy tabled a proposal for an examining committee to conduct an investigation for the reasons why capital controls were imposed on Greece and the signing of the third memorandum, as well as the need for a fresh recapitalisation of Greek banks.

The committee should also investigate whether there was a plan for the country’s exit from the euro through the issue of a parallel currency and a haircut of bonds held by the European Central Bank, or whether there was a plan to break into Greece’s national mint that involved ministers of the previous government.

It should also investigate whether the prime minister knew about these plans, as ministers of the then government had claimed, or whether they were acting on their own and without his knowledge.
