Greece's parliament says it will delay until next week a vote on cutting access to state funding for the neo-Nazi Golden Dawn party, currently under investigation for alleged criminal activities.
Originally scheduled for Thursday, the vote has been postponed to Tuesday to allow politicians time to debate, a parliamentary press spokesman told AFP.
On Wednesday the Greek parliament lifted the legal immunity of six Golden Dawn politicians, paving the way for their prosecution.
Two of them had already been charged with belonging to a criminal organisation and conditionally freed. The other four are also now expected to face charges.
Three other party politicians - including Golden Dawn leader and founder Nikos Michaloliakos and his deputy Christos Pappas - are being held in a high-security Athens prison on charges of running or belonging to a criminal group.
