A study will be commissioned to recognise and honour acts of civil heroism and bravery. It will be administered abroad to avoid misuse. I will recommend the highest and first award be given to Cyprus’ professional and volunteer firefighters (city, village, and forest) since 1960 as a body.
I also propose representatives of our fire services organize an annual island-wide parade of fire engines and crews, waving our national flag, so they can be publicly honoured. Our young children will be very pleased. This can perhaps begin in the winter of 2023/24 or early spring 2024 when the risk of fire is minimal.
