Tension on the bicameral committee of inquiry into the banks, postpone the session scheduled for Thursday for the election of the president. Pressing from the Democratic Party because the 5-star Senator Elio Lannutti renounces the candidacy. "I don't get rid of anything, nobody asked me for a step back," says Lannutti. The president's name 'will be the result of a majority agreement', specify sources of the M5s.

Lannutti met Beppe Grillo in Rome: with him Antonio Di Pietro. At the end of the meeting, Lannutti confirmed that he does not intend to withdraw his candidacy for the presidency of the commission.

"It should be Lannutti who withdraws from the candidacy for the presidency of the banks commission. I hope he has the sensitivity to remove the majority from this great, huge embarrassment". Alessia Morani (Pd), undersecretary for economic development, writes it on twitter.

"Elio Lannutti says it well: the president of a parliamentary commission of inquiry is not a dictator, but he is sticking to the majority. And since the majority does not exist on his self-candidacy, he acts accordingly". Enrico Borghi, of the Pd Group Presidency in the Chamber, wrote this in a comment on his Twitter profile.

"I think Elio Lannutti is the person with the most adequate skills for that role so we will insist with Elio Lannutti." This was stated by Daniele Pesco, chairman of the Senate Budget Committee on radio too on Radio Uno regarding the hypothesis that Senator M5s Elio Lannutti could hold the role of chairman of the commission of inquiry into the banks.

"I do not take off from nothing. And no one asked me a step back. Of Maio in the last assembly, to my precise question, he replied: go ahead". Senator M5s Elio Lannutti, interviewed by the Press, reiterates that he is the candidate of the Movement for the presidency of the commission of inquiry into the banks. "They are the historical memory of all bank crashes: from 2001 to 2018 there were 98 billion euros and 1.6 million savers," says Lannutti. With regard to the support of Matteo Salvini, "I thank him because I believe that the appointment should take place with the widest possible consensus. If Pd and Renzi do not vote for me, they will be the ones to break the majority. They will take responsibility". On the Bank of Italy, Lannutti hopes for control by Parliament. "In other countries, the central bank's shareholder is the public, not the private banks. Let's look at the anomaly," he urges. As for the governor Ignazio Visco, "I want to reassure him. He must not be afraid if he has nothing to hide", declares Lannutti. "If there were all these failures, will there be any responsibility or not? I look at current events: the nomination of Antonio Blandini as commander of the Popolare di Bari. He is the same commissioner of the Banca Tercas whose rescue was imposed on Pop. Bari. There is a somewhat too fideistisco approach on Bankitalia ".
