The government is on the back foot today after a decision by the Administrative Court to declare unconstitutional the law implementing public sector salary cuts cuts following the financial crisis.
The legislation was passed in December 2012 on the grounds that the Cypriot economy was in a extraordinary situation and the cuts were seen as nesseccary to rectify state finances.
The Court's decision was not unanimous and the government has the right to appeal against the ruling within 42 days.
