E-consultation platform has been approved, FinMin says

The Council of Ministers has approved the establishment of a public consultation platform, known as e-consultation, Minister of Finance Makis Keravnos said after the Cabinet meeting.

Speaking on 4 December, he announced that the Cabinet had also approved the regulatory framework that governs the new platform.

The Minister added that it would be the single point for all public consultations carried out by the public and the wider public sector, noting that the platform was anticipated to contribute to the improvement of the regulatory framework, the rule of law, and full transparency, as well as the greater participation in daily issues not only as regards law bills but also in any other action plans prepared by the Ministries.

For this purpose, he added, a guide has been drawn up. The Minister said that the platform is ready and is operating and that employees from all the relevant services that will manage the platform have been trained.

Keravnos also referred to the recognition of Cyprus' issuing of its green bond last April by the Global Capital organisation, describing it as an important achievement of the fiscal policy "and how we manage the public debt".
