Hatzidakis to meet EU Task Force chief to discuss funds and reforms
Development Minister Costis Hatzidakis is due to meet the head of the EU Task Force for Greece, Horst Reichenbach, in Athens on Monday afternoon.
It is thought that the use of EU structural funds and the pace of reforms in Greece will top the meeting’s agenda.
Speaking to Sunday’s Real News newspaper, Hatzidakis said that the government had to be careful with its tax reforms so it didn’t “make a bigger mistake than the one we are trying to correct.”
