Ruling SYRIZA party’s parliamentary group, which was chaired by PM Alexis Tsipras, on Tuesday discussed the idea of tabling a proposal in Parliament for the establishment of a committee of inquiry into the question of how Greece found itself locked into repeated bailout programs – known locally as the “memorandum”.

Parliament group secretary Christos Mantas said the scope of such an inquiry would be period when the country entered the bailout program, for the first time, and any other issue dealing with their (memoranda) implementation.

He added that such a decision was a demand by a majority of Greek citizens.
