The focus and culture, as well as a “confusion concerning Sector Tax Codes for companies that do not declare having night entertainment”, are the points where attention is focused, said Theodoros Skylakakis on ERT’s “Connections” show.
The data until December 30 show that there was no problem for the food service sector since the turnover increased by 33% compared to 2019, the Deputy Minister of Finance pointed out, explaining that announcements will be made after the first week of January is evaluated.
“The money comes from the State Reserve Fund for COVID and we have to be very careful to make it through without burdening the budget,” he said when asked about new support measures.
Savings also increased and amounted to 35 billion in deposits from businesses and households, said Mr. Skylakakis, emphasizing that “it is better for frightened consumers to think of energy savings as an investment.”
“Pressures in the coming years on energy prices with ups and downs”
On the way to the “green transition”, the prices of renewable energy sources will also enter the geopolitical game and the price increases will continue, which is why it is necessary to protect households. The key is energy savings and the government is giving huge amounts of subsidies, over 2.5 billion, he stressed.
We were the second country to request approval and the third to request payment from the Recovery Fund. “Both the loans and the subsidies part are progressing very fast now, where there is also the” Save “program,” said Mr. Skylakakis.
