On this case, there might be a legislative regulation for the cost course of so as to put an finish to the good judicial marathon of the pensioners.
Who won’t obtain retroactively
As authorized circles emphasize, the choice of the AED is quasi-law and the federal government should implement it.

The remainder of the pensioners, whether or not they utilized to the Court docket after 31/7/2020 or didn’t apply, won’t obtain any retroactive advantages. That’s, for individuals who had not filed lawsuits earlier than 31/7/2020, their claims for reimbursement of subsidies and items are extinguished by legislation. Thus the claims of the 1,300,000 pensioners who had not filed lawsuits till 31/7/2020, in accordance with selections 1403-7/22, have been extinguished by legislation for causes of emergency.
Within the ice

Respect for the courtroom resolution
As said by the lawyer Mr. Loukas Apostolidis, “the Administration, the Ministry of Labor and Social Insurance coverage, e-EFKA, the federal government should respect and implement the courtroom selections. As advocates of this long-suffering social group, we now have repeatedly complained and protested for the respect and implementation of judicial selections. The indifference of the Administration of e-EFKA, the continuation of the authorized battle on its half, although the authorized situation has been resolved by the above selections of the Plenary of the Council of State, exhibit the intention of e-EFKA to exhaust each margin for the cost of mentioned retroactive quantities of pensions within the supplementary pension paid in addition to the abolished vacation and vacation present allowances.
They lament the executive courts
The executive courts are actually sighing from the hundreds of lawsuits to be adjudicated by greater than 250,000 beneficiaries. Equally insufferable is the burden on the inadequate workers of e-EFKA for the preparation of courtroom information. As well as, the State is charged with the cost of overdue curiosity”.
10 years of struggling
“We hope that the AED will reply to our request for a brief model of the choice. We hope that the political management and the e-EFKA after the choice of the AED, no less than for individuals who have filed lawsuits, will put an finish to the torture of retroactives. I consider, 10 years of pensioners’ struggling within the courtrooms is sufficient, when the authorized situation has been determined since 2015!”, notes lawyer Loukas Apostolidis.
