Greek municipal leaders seek deadline extension for childcare center compliance

The president of Thessaly's regional union and mayor of Trikala, Nikolaos Sakkas, has formally requested that the Central Union of Municipalities of Greece (KED) intervene with the Ministry of Interior to establish a transitional regulation for municipal childcare centers adapting to P.D. 99/2017. This is a routine administrative request, indicating potential implementation delays in local government compliance with national standards. The outcome is uncertain and of limited immediate significance beyond local governance.
