Paragraph 33
 

B. Prytanies (Articles 9-13)


Other problematic issues could be the following: the lack of definition of the goals of the prytanies (they can be used for different objectives as proposals for legislation, supervision of political authorities or evaluation of the policies); the public hearing of any person just submitting a request; the establishment of the list for the appointment of prytanies (Article 10.1 is not very explicit on this point); the rule barring persons acquitted thanks to a statute of limitation from being inscribed in the list of prytans (Article 10.5). The “request for selection” (Article 12.5) should also be defined more precisely.
