From Christmas, exemptions to travel. The government invests the Parliament: 'Take responsibility for it'

2020-12-12T11:27:53.985Z


Prime Minister Conte opens to intercommunal travel. Appeal to the common sense of Marcucci (Pd) and Salvini (Lega). Contrary the governor De Luca: 'Christmas and New Year do not exist'. 'Promote reunification' says Governor Bonaccini. Calabria (FI). 'Scaricabarile with the Parliament' (ANSA)


 The government refers the responsibility for deciding

possible exceptions to travel bans during the end of year holidays

to Parliament

.

Limits, explains Prime Minister Conte from Brussels, can "create an objective problem. Those who live in a big city and have close relatives have the opportunity to move. Those in smaller villages, may have some difficulties. If the Parliament, assuming all the responsibility, he wants to introduce exceptions on smaller municipalities, within a limited kilometer radius, we will come back to this point. Parliament is sovereign. But great caution in any exception ".

"I

await the government to make common sense prevail over Christmas travel

, in the ways that will be deemed most appropriate".

So the leader of the Democratic Party at Palazzo Madama

Andrea Marcucci

returns to the Christmas Day and the changes hypothesized by the Government.

"I reiterate that I am absolutely in favor of the rigor chosen in the latest measures - he underlines - but I do not understand the meaning of the objections that are addressed to me. If a Roman citizen, at Christmas, goes from one neighborhood to another, he does not jeopardize the public health. If, on the other hand, another citizen does it, passing from one country to another neighboring one and certainly covering fewer kilometers, does it become a danger to public health? ".

The fact that the government is evaluating the

provincial limits for travel

"is not a victory for Salvini, I think it is a victory of common sense: we told Conte it limits travel within the same province or at most a numerical limit. all of Europe does not set limits between municipalities, I do not want Italians to be separated at home between families ".

The leader of the Lega

Matteo Salvini said this

in Telelombardia.

"Health comes first of all, no one thinks of New Year's Eve parties but I have also spoken to many doctors: there is no scientific motivation to close people at home as for the municipality. If anything, let's put numerical limits", proposed Salvini .

"For Conte, Parliament is sovereign only when it serves to remove the chestnuts from the fire in the government, in all other cases it is possible to proceed with decrees and votes of confidence".

Thus the

Forza Italia

deputy

Annagrazia Calabria

commenting on the statements of Prime Minister Conte during the press conference in Brussels.

"The center-right - he continues - has never been afraid to take responsibility for making choices in the interest of Italy. Evidently, the same cannot be said of the premier who, with his blame game, confirms that the sole priority is the protection of armchairs and their image ", he concludes.

"

Open hotel restaurants on the evening of December 31st.

We ask the Government, which has opened to the amendments to the Christmas decree, accepting our requests to cancel the ban on moving between municipalities on public holidays, to evaluate the opportunity to insert a derogation for the restaurants of the accommodation facilities, providing for an opening even after 6 pm, in compliance with all the safety provisions ".

The request is made by

UDC senator Antonio De Poli

who is the spokesperson in Parliament for a request launched by the mayor of Abano Terme, Federico Barbierato, in favor of spa hotels.

"

I am not saying that we must give the green light to everyone,

I would be irresponsible, I am just saying that

some cases of family reunification

, of close relatives in order not to leave a relative alone or in need" is "a matter of common sense" to think about.

Thus the president of the Conference of the Regions and the Emilia-Romagna Region

Stefano Bonaccini

who, as a guest of Radio Capital, commented on the hypothesis of movements between municipalities on holiday days.

 For the hard line 

the governor of Campania De Luca: "In these two weeks we are playing the future of our country"

, he added - we must have the strength to resist all demagogies today, we must have the courage to say that

this year Christmas and New Year do not exist otherwise we will go to disaster

".
