The Greek prime minister’s late, late proposals to creditors to secure a rescue package and keep the country in the eurozone are being scrutinised at home and abroad.

In Athens a parliamentary commission has been meeting ahead of a later debate and vote involving all MPs.

Eurozone finance ministers are also examining the details; they are expected to give their verdict ahead of a full EU summit on Sunday.

Alexis Tsipras met members of the ruling Syriza party on Friday morning to seek their backing.

Several left-wing figures oppose the plan which would involve just the kind of austerity measures previously rejected by Alexis Tsipras himself – and Greek voters at last weekend’s referendum.

But the package is expected to be passed thanks to backing by opposition parties.
