The Independent Authority addressed OASA, asking for its intervention in the form of written instructions to OSY) with regard to the implementation of the law. Following the Ombudsman’s intervention, OASA urged OSY to proceed with examining the applications and annulling the fines of the unemployed that fulfil the legal requirements, even after commencement of the forced payment procedure by the Tax Authorities.
