The Greek-Australian Society in Athens accused the Australian federal government of Kevin Rudd of unjustifiable delay in the implementation of the bilateral pension agreement. The association underlined that the Greek Parliament’s Standing Committee on Social Affairs has unanimously approved the draft law on the Social Security Agreement between Greece and Australia adding that within a week the draft law will be voted in parliament.
According to the association, the Australian government has informed Greece that it needs more time and will be ready most likely in early October 2008 or early January 2009 at the latest.
