![The [Greek] European Tragedy](http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-OSMAuv1xvEY/UUpsO5__BaI/AAAAAAAABsg/DZGqo9w12Ek/s920/GkBack_new.jpg)
Now we know why EU Task Force members, Reichenbach & Co, are keen to come to Greece and extend a helping hand with know-how and other nice things. We may also understand, why the reforms do not proceed as quickly as they should. Because on Greek taxpayers expenses the esteemed helpers, preferably the Germans like the Fuchtels and the Reichenbachs, enjoy the sun, the mild temperatures and the delicacies of local tavernas…
Ministry of Administrative Reform and Electronic Governance confirmed to Parliament that members of the Task Force receive a daily allowance to provide technical assistance to our debt-ridden country.
In a letter sent by the Secretary for Administrative Reform Manousos Voloudakis to the Parliament,
Greece pays to foreign public officials/experts (tickets, accommodation and daily compensation of 92 euro) in the context of the EU relevant legislation ”Operational Program -Administrative Reform 2011″.
Voloudakis emphasized that “Greece will by no means pay any higher compensation to any state official of another country or Task Force member.”
The letter was sent after a relevant question posed by independent MP Nikos Nikolopoulos, former Nea Dimocratia.
PS We still need to know how many people enjoy this compensations and the total cost per week, per month, per year
