Spadafora: funds to the amateurs still standing, I'm ashamed of the bureaucracy

"I am ashamed as a minister for how bureaucracy works in our country and for the very fact of having to admit it."

Thus begins the hard outburst of the Minister of Sport, Vincenzo Spadafora, who on his Facebook page complains about the bureaucratic slowness that makes it still impossible to disburse the funds allocated by the refreshment decree for amateur sports clubs.

The decree was approved on 29 October "and to date the resources are not yet available to the Department of Sport so that it can provide them to the ASDs and SSDs that are suffering and are likely to close, perhaps forever", continues Spadafora.

"Every day we urge bureaucrats - adds the minister -, who obviously do not feel the drama of the moment and do not feel the weight of their (non) actions, to be swift in the administrative tasks that are their responsibility". "Obviously we must not generalize - concludes Spadafora - and the criticism is not indiscriminately for everyone but certainly these continuous delays in the provision of" emergency "measures are a bad example and a bad service to the country".
