The President of the Parliament, Annita Demetriou, decided to withdraw 12 high-ranking positions from the 2026 budget following reactions from members of the Finances Committee. Legislators expressed concerns that creating these positions before the elections was inappropriate. This decision was made after discussions that highlighted the members' worries and suggestions.
