ANA/MPA---The list of prior actions related to the disbursement of
the 2 billion euro tranche is expected to be determined on Friday so
as to be presented at the Eurogroup on October 5, a senior eurozone
official said on Thursday adding that the first evaluation will start
in middle October.
In addition, he said, the discussion on the second list of prior actions
for the disbursement of the next 1.0 billion euro tranche will have
started.
The first evaluation should have been completed by November 15 as it
is a prior action for the disbursement of the additional 15 billion
euros, provided in the July 12 agreement for banks, if it is considered
necessary.
The same official noted that the social security reforms will probably
be included in the first evaluation.
Monday's Eurogroup with the participation of Finance Minister Euclid
Tsakalotos and Alternate Finance Minister George Chouliarakis will focus
on the new government's policy while the issue of the Greek debt will
not be discussed.
