EU health commissioner Tonio Borg, who is visiting Athens to participate in a EU Health ministers informal meeting, noted that before the crisis "the need for reforms was visible, but after the crisis it became urgent."

A new bill complementing the country's fiscal adjustment as per the Troika agreement is expected to be introduced to parliament on Tuesday. It will be less strict than the previous ones, in that it will not be reducing wages and pensions in the public sector like its predecessors, but it will keep slashing the state deficit.

The so called “multi-bill” containing liberalization measures in many professions, agreed upon with the Troika auditors after months of agonizing negotiations, was finally released today.
