The coordinator of New Democracy’s constitutional review proposals Kostas Tasoulas presented a draft plan of nine reforms to party leader Kyriakos Mitsotakis. The proposals being developed involve:

  • Limiting the ability of calling early elections and introducing a 5-year term for Parliament
  • Giving parliamentary minorities greater power
  • Limiting the immunity for MPs, so that it only covers political actions
  • Extending the powers of the President of the Hellenic Democracy
  • Providing incentives for investments
  • Bolstering the independence of the judiciary
  • Abolishing the state monopoly in higher education
  • Simplifying constitutional review procedures
  • Streamlining the Constitution and abolishing bureaucratic provisions
