‘The EYT law has to be reviewed’

AKP President and Chairman Recep Tayyip Erdoğan announced the regulation on the retirement age (EYT) on December 28, 2022.

EYT members raised the voice that the regulation, which was expected by millions of people, did not reach the agenda of the Grand National Assembly of Turkey. The labels “We want our rights before 99” and “EYT” became the agenda of social networks.

“NEW VICTIMS ARE ADDED BEFORE THE LAW”

Gönül Boran, EYT Federation board chair, said: “New complaints were added before the law was passed. We do not accept the removal of the age requirement and the introduction of premium complaints. We want to be able to establish all of our rights before 99,” he said.

ANNOUNCED THE DATE TO BE DISCUSSED AT THE TGNA

Gönül Boran said: “On 02/02/2023 at 11:00, the EYT bill was sent to be discussed in the Budget Plan Committee. We will take our place in the commission with our EYT federation and the presidents of the association”.

CHP: HAS TO BE REVIEWED

CHP Group Vice President Özgür Özel also made a statement, saying:

“The proposal of the Justice and Development Party, with the promise of solving the problem of retirees, touches on an important area that has been waiting for a solution for many years. However, this proposal, which is less than expected, is open to creating new grievances and should be reviewed.
