Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis spoke of a historic breakthrough in the face of a long-standing problem from the floor of the Parliament during the debate on the bill "Consolidation of the first degree of jurisdiction, spatial restructuring of the courts of civil and criminal justice, and other provisions under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Justice.".

Mr. Mitsotakis also referred to the court decision on the Mati fire, stressing that the decisions that caused the anger of the victims' relatives and public opinion are not final and can be reviewed in a legal manner, while he stressed that the court was based on the legislative framework voted by SYRIZA, noting that "with what we voted for, the sentences would have been more severe.".

The swift administration of justice is an integral part of liberal democracy, as the prime minister stressed, among other things. He said the bill is not only an important reform but a historic breakthrough in the face of a long-standing problem. The goal is to make court decisions faster by 30%. The Prime Minister also said and added that when a decision takes 4 to 5 years to come out, this delay becomes an argument to those who lurk to challenge the rule of law.
