Ministerial meeting addresses fireworks regulations
A meeting was held on Maundy Thursday with the Minister of Agriculture, Rural Development, and Environment, Maria Panayiotou, along with the Minister of Justice and Public Order and the Police. They discussed tightening the framework for the use of fireworks following recent fires in Limassol and Paphos provinces caused by fireworks. Permits for fireworks have been revoked temporarily, and further discussions and meetings will take place to address the issue and potentially implement stricter measures. The investigation into the recent fire in Limassol province is ongoing, and statements will be made once it is completed.
