ATHENS, July 21 – Crash exam for government unity isvconsideration of the bill with contains the required reform measures put forward in the Agreement adopted at the the Brussels Summit. There is an sense of urgency: Tomorrow, Wednesday at 9am, there will be a joint meeting of the four relevant committees of Parliament,
If on Wednesday the number SYRIZA deputies voting with the government falls below 120 then Alexis Tsipras would not have the necessary SYRIZA party support. With successful passage of the bill he would have Parliament’s approval to go forward in negotiations with the Institutions without having the mandate of his party.
The government would then be under pressure to call an election. However, government sources are said to say that if forced to call an election – likely in the early fall – it would do so only with an advance agreement. This rules out the parliamentary procedure of calling for an immediate snap election. There is indeed a sense of urgency to pass the Agreement to endorse continuing negotiations on “prerequisites.” Prerequisites being so-called reforms to Greece banking framework and government expenditures and sources of revenue.
Unlikely to accelerate developments in internal party SYRIZA, to convene institutions and squabbling, which is not excluded to employ character “final cleanup”. However, according to the Tribune, what appears is that in the last case, Europe may not adversely sees the possibility of holding elections at some point after the summer.
Although it seems / likely that this will have one requirement: revision of the electoral Law and repealing bonus of 50 seats, in order to streamline and facilitate the formation of coalition governments. It is no coincidence that Tuesday election law change issue raised.
