One more day.
After having occupied the commission, protested in the press and on social media and appealed to the president of the Senate Ignazio La Russa, the oppositions, once united, manage to obtain more time for the examination, at least formally, of the budget law.
And they postpone the final ok from Palazzo Madama to the late morning of December 29, just when Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni will be grappling with her first press conference at the end of the year.
And he could find himself answering for the new dough that risks breaking out within the majority, the eternal question of the seaside resorts, for which Forza Italia announces that it is ready to ask for yet another extension of the tenders.
While the prime minister will submit to the long series of questions that await her (45 members) the Senate should still be able to put the seal on the center-right's first tormented manoeuvre.
Compressed process, in the end beyond measure according to the oppositions who at Palazzo Madama ask to have at least the possibility of discussing it, given that there is no mention of intervening on the merits.
One more day is not a tragedy, the majority observes, recalling that the last two maneuvers were even closed on December 30th.
But the accumulation of errors and delays infuriates Pd, Avs, IV and Movimento 5 Stelle in the same way.
Lastly, the technical transition report is missing, the one that accompanies the text from one branch of Parliament to another and gives an account of the changes made.
It is expected in the early afternoon,
when the government announces the final vote for Wednesday evening (with confidence).
But there is no agreement on the calendar, which should be voted on in the Chamber. The numbers of those present advise against proceeding with the vote, the Chamber is postponed.
In the meantime, when it is almost five o'clock, the report is still not seen and the oppositions ask the president of the Senate to review the voting times.
Postponing the maneuver to Thursday, when the prime minister is planning the end-of-year conference, is the declared objective of the oppositions
, who occupy the benches of the commission presidency around 6 pm, with a coming and going of senators, between selfies (" They can't be done", the call of the Palazzo Madama clerks), nostalgia ("I hadn't occupied for thirty years, so at school we wrote it with a 'K'") and some whispered concern for trains and flights already booked.
In the end, the whole of Wednesday will be devoted to debate while the trust and the vote on the maneuver tables will arrive on Thursday by lunchtime.
As long as everything runs smoothly.
The process of the maneuver having closed not without friction even within the majority, for Meloni a new, delicate chapter is already on the horizon.
The issue concerns the 30,000 bathing establishments which, according to the rules written in the Competition Law, should see concessions put out to tender next year, as also imposed by a ruling by the Council of State.
A theme, that of concessions and in general of the application of Bolkestein, which over the years has seen the center-right compact in defense of beaches and street vendors.
Government from which the seaside resorts expected - as declared on the specialized site - an extension intervention which, at present, is not foreseen.
Forza Italia will take care of it, assures Maurizio Gasparri, with an amendment to the Milleproroghe decree.
The declaration of the blue senator comes while at Palazzo Chigi a delegation of FdI goes to speak with the premier - in a meeting held confidential - precisely about Bolkestein.
Moreover, there is not only the problem of the old concessions but also the proposal launched by the Minister of Tourism Daniela Santanché to put those beaches that are now free and left to "deterioration" to tender.
An issue that could reopen old disputes (and infringement procedures) with Brussels at the very moment in which the government will ask to renegotiate the Pnrr.
Which, however, the government will take care of as soon as the delegations on the bathing establishments are entrusted.
Which in all probability will go not to Santanché but to Nello Musumeci.
