EWG to debate debt, taxes and fiscal adjustment mechanism

The Alternate Minister of Finance Giorgos Houliarakis will attend Thursday’s Euro Working Group meeting, ahead of the critical Eurogroup meeting scheduled for 24 May.

Thursday’s agenda will include Greek debt relief and taxation, as well as the critical automatic fiscal adjustment mechanism to which the Greek government has agreed to, rather than introducing contingency measures.

It is likely that the Euro Working Group will reconvene ahead of the crucial 24 May Eurogroup.
