The General Union of Workers announced that it stopped “in the last legislative session of the Chamber of Deputies, which was fruitful and extremely important, which took place on Monday, and whose results will positively affect workers and popular groups.”

He said in a statement: “From this point of view, the General Union of Workers is addressed from the President of Parliament, Mr. Nabih Berri, and from the honorable representatives who contributed to achieving these results, with greetings and thanks for this achievement, which was the most outstanding of what was expressed in it:

Suspending bank secrecy for a full year in the accounts of the Central Bank, ministries, departments, public institutions and municipalities, and thus Parliament has abandoned all the excuses that were made to hinder the criminal investigation and discover the sources of waste, corruption and looting in all public facilities.

A law to protect social security funds and health benefits, and it is a law that protects the Social Security Corporation and approximately one and a half million Lebanese.

Move to the use of cheaper “generic” drugs, support the local pharmaceutical industry, raise the mandatory NS mark for the dispensing of prescription drugs and leave the option to the pharmacist and the patient to choose the cheapest drug with the same results . This is what strengthens and contributes to the proposal of the General Union of Workers.

Cars with public license plates, vehicles and buses designated for the transport of passengers and motorcycles are completely exempt from the annual traffic fees for the year 2020-2021. And private cars are exempt in variable proportions depending on the year of manufacture and the number of horses.

Extend the work for a period of six months for holders of bad loans to banks “that is, until the end of June 2021” without fines or commissions of any kind, and then reschedule them for a period of three years.

Impose severe penalties for sexual harassment, especially at work, to protect the dignity of women.

The union considered that “the completion of the laws related to the protection of the interests of the people is a great and distinctive step in the history of Parliament, especially in these difficult and complex circumstances in which the Lebanese live and suffer its effects.”

He concluded: “Likewise, submitting a series of important projects to the competent parliamentary committees to reexamine them and specify a period of fifteen days just to finalize them in preparation for their presentation to the General Assembly is a promising topic and to re-route parliamentary legislation through the good way thanks to the insistence of the Speaker and many distinguished representatives in these circumstances. ” It is difficult, by the appropriate legislative means, to save our country and to achieve as soon as possible the formation of a national government of salvation that helps to get the country out of the situation in which it is drowning.
