And. Xanthos: For ‘laughs’ the answer of the Ministry of Health for the abolition of permanence in the NSS

“The response of the Ministry of Health to the complaint of the Head of Health of SYRIZA-Progressive Alliance Andreas Xanthou for the abolition of the permanence of NSS doctors, is ‘for laughter and for crying'”, A. Xanthos himself answered in the relevant announcement today.

“For laughs, because the authors of the announcement claim that nothing has changed in the current legal framework for permanent employment, referring to law 2889/2001. for 13 years and explicitly provides that ‘the positions of doctors serving in the NSS as Curators A’, B ‘and C’ for a five-year term and have not been made permanent with the entry into force of this law shall not be re-advertised. “Doctors who hold these positions are judged individually and if their judgment is positive they are made permanent”, he said and added: “On the contrary, the new provision that was voted a few days ago, also explicitly says that ‘at the end of five years the position is re-announced “as long as the same doctor is chosen, he is appointed as a permanent ‘”.

“But the answer of the Ministry of Health is also for tears because it tries to convince us that this reversal in the working acquis of the NSS doctors did not happen ‘in secret’ and ‘in secret’. A week before the bill of the Ministry of Health that has come to Parliament A number of other provisions, the government brings in a bill of the Ministry of Interior for the ‘Strategic Plan to Fight Corruption’, such a fundamental regulation, the Minister of Health does not even go to present it in plenary, the issue is completely silenced and the ministry has the audacity Health to accuse us of a delayed reaction? “, Continued A. Xanthos.

“So who is the Ministry of Health kidding? Certainly not the NSS doctors on duty, for whom – as a reward for their contribution to the pandemic – there is a future without any guarantees, without a permanent job prospect, without any incentive to remain in the public system. “Cynical neoliberalism, hatred of the NSS, indignity for its officials and a cruel client state are the ideal ‘recipe’ for the final dissolution of public care,” he concluded.
