Asked whether the regulation will come to the Parliament this week, Alim said, “I assume that EYT will come to the Parliament this week. Because they are meeting with the deputies in the cluster. Our cluster will turn what they talked about into a bill and discuss it in the committee.” said.
“Does anything change in the content?” Reception to the question, “It does not change.” he replied.
Vedat Alım, Minister of Labor and Social Security, “What is the cost of EYT?” On the question, he said that there is an assumption in the middle of 120-150 billion liras for this year. Noting that the numbers spoken about the cost of EYT are not without mistakes, Alım said, “We have the numbers, we have the account. I say 150 billion, but I say what can be the maximum.

In response to a question about the restructuring of premium debts, the Minister Alim said, “Borrowings within the scope of EYT are not included in this. His borrowing is completely according to our law. You cannot say, ‘I cannot fill 5000, 9000 premium days or I have a shortage of 1000 days.’ If you are short of days, you will work. There is no such debt.” said.
