NICOSIA, March 22 (Xinhua) -- The Cypriot parliaments on Friday passed emergency bills aimed at clinching 1 a bailout deal with international lenders, but left until Saturday to vote on the contentious 2 deposit tax.
The Parliament agreed to creates a so-called investment fund, aimed at helping 3 raise 5.8 billion euros demanded by the Eurogroup as a condition for a 10 billion euro bailout.
The Cypriot parliament on Tuesday rejected a Eurogroup demand to tax bank deposits, only to make a U-turn after the European Central Bank issued an ultimatum 4 that emergency liquidity 5 to the Cypriot banks will be discontinued on Monday - effectively forcing a bank meltdown.
Lawmakers also set limits to the outflow of capital to prevent a drain of the banks when they reopen on Tuesday at the end of a week-long bank holiday.
A third bill passed by parliament provided for the consolidation 6 of Cyprus Popular Bank which would have collapsed 7 at opening on Tuesday. The bank will transfer unsecured deposits of over 100,000 euros and bad loans to a "bad" bank which will ultimately be liquidated 8.
The bank will continue functioning on a much smaller scale which will include deposits fewer than 100.000 euros and good loans.
Eurogroup finance ministers will meet on Sunday to talk on a revised bailout package for Cyprus.
Cyprus president Nicos Anastasiades, who was engaged in non-stop negotiations 9 during this week, will fly to Brussels on Saturday for the final phase of the bailout negotiations.
Leaders of all parliamentary parties will accompany Anastasiades in Brussels in a show of national unity 10 in the face of strong pressure on Cyprus by its Eurogroup partners.
