The Greek parliament has passed a bill which will see 15,000 state employees lose their jobs by the end of next year. It is part of continuing moves by the centre-right government to cut
costs and ensure more bailout money from international creditors
Some 2,000 civil servants will lose their jobs by the end of June,
another 2,000 by the end of the year, and a further 11,000 by the end of
2014.
Note
The law is a condition for Greece to receive its next tranche of loans worth 8.8bn euros (£7.4bn; $11.4bn).
