A one-year extension for beach concessions is coming. “At the end of a hearing with the most representative associations of the maritime industry, Fdi noted the majority’s request to continue with a one-year extension of concessions under the Milleproroghe Decree, according to established conditions. Gianluca Caramanna, Fratelli d’Italia’s deputy and tourism director, said, “The Competition Decree and Therefore, the majority will support changes in this direction,” he said.
“Fratelli d’Italia has also entrusted the majority rapporteurs Alberto Balboni and Dario Damiani with two more fundamentally important amendment proposals: state ownership, river and lake. The second proposed amendment, in the absence of defined criteria, is to prevent municipalities and other donor agencies from autonomously deciding on the invocation of public procedures to avoid further conflict”.
“The path taken, though not yet decisive, highlights the clear political will of the Fdi and the majority powers to defend companies in the industry. Caramanna concludes, finding a definitive solution to the age-old issue.”
“Maneuver to protect the privileged and tax evaders”
Alleanza Verdi and the aide of the Italian left, Angelo Bonelli, went on the offensive, citing a maneuver protecting the privileged and tax evaders. “The Meloni government, with its action, brings us closer to an infringement procedure by the EU. But above all, we see once again that this government protects the privileges of those who pay several thousand euros for concessions that generate turnover, millions of euros per year. For example, the Twiga factory in Briatore and Santanchè , with a turnover of 4 million euros, pays the state only 18,000 euros per year.The turnover of state-owned maritime concessions in Italy is about 7 billion euros per year, but the State receives only a little over 100 million euros per year, with over 50% illegality. “Another gift the state gives to those who want to speculate on its natural resources and heritage,” concludes Bonelli.
