Finance Minister Gikas Hardouvelis on Wednesday met with Labour Minister Yiannis Vroutsis ahead of the troika head officials’ arrival, who on Thursday are expected to meet with Hardouvelis and on Friday with Vroutsis.

According to a top Labour ministry official, the short upcoming review is not of particular importance, while the big “review” is scheduled for September.

The pending issues in the negotiations between the Labour ministry and the troika of Greece’s international lenders include the change of the law on unions, the further cut of the labour cost, the evaluation of the insurance system reform progress and the government’s proposal for the settlement of arrears to social security funds.
