In the Chamber, the unified text of the legislative proposals aimed at declaring Italian theaters 'national monuments' was approved with 172 yes, 46 no and 65 abstentions. The measure, which contains a list of 408 theaters, was substantially rewritten with two amendments presented by the Culture Commission chaired by Federico Mollicone.
The bill now passes to the Senate, where it is expected to be approved in the next few days. The vote was held in the last hour of the Chamber of Deputies' session.
