[02] PM Karamanlis requests off-the-agenda discussion on economy
Prime Minister Costas Karamanlis addressed a letter to Parliament
President Dimitris Sioufas on Tuesday requesting an off-the-agenda
discussion on economic policy. "The constantly intensifying global
financial crisis, the relative developments and prospects within the EU
framework and the impact on our economy make the detailed briefing of
the parliament members on the policy being followed by the government
in the wider economic sector imperative," the prime minister's letter
reads. The briefing will focus on the solution of current problems,
