The first reaction of government officials to PASOK’s request for the establishment of a preliminary investigation committee of the Parliament which will examine any criminal responsibility of the – then – Deputy Minister to Prime Minister Christos Triantopoulos regarding “the alteration of the site of the tragedy” of Tempe: “We will take a position after we have read the petition accurately,” government officials said after the opposition’s announcement.
The government officials said after the official announcement of the opposition party’s announcement.

PASOK said in its statement: After studying the case file and in particular the detailed conclusion of the Prosecutor of the Larissa Court of Appeal of 15.7.2024, PASOK with institutional consistency submits a proposal for the establishment of a special parliamentary committee to conduct a preliminary examination to investigate any criminal responsibilities of the Deputy Minister to the Prime Minister Christos Triandopoulos during the time in question, by Article 86 paragraph 3 of the Constitution and Articles 153 et seq. of the Rules of Procedure of the Parliament regarding the alteration of the site of the Tempi tragedy, which took place from 3/3/2023 onwards.

The fate of PASOK’s request depends on the stance chosen by New Democracy, as 151 positive votes are required in the Plenary for the establishment of a preliminary committee of the Parliament.
