The bill on differentiated autonomy
, presented by the Minister for Regional Affairs Roberto Calderoli, arrives on the table of the Council of Ministers convened for today at 4 pm. On the text, to which some changes have been made compared to the draft issued to the Ministries on Monday
a preliminary approval
should arrive
, which will be followed by further examination in a subsequent CDM.
THE MEASURE
The bill defined by the Minister for Regional Affairs Roberto Calderoli is a battleground between the majority and the opposition
.
And in the center-right it is above all the League that is preparing to celebrate the approval of the text in the Council of Ministers, twenty days from the Regionals in Lazio and Lombardy, one of the three regions that have already started the process to obtain functions hitherto performed by the State.
According
to the 10-article bill
, the attribution of functions can only take place after the essential levels of services have been determined, the Lep defined with the Dpcm, within a year as envisaged by the latest budget law.
The process for the agreement between the Region (also with special statute) and the State will last at least 5 months, including the 60 days for the examination of the Chambers.
According to Calderoli's draft, the commissions should have been expressed, but among the "touch-ups" decided in the technical meeting in preparation for the Council of Ministers - it seems also on the input of Giorgia Meloni - one should opt for a guideline voted in the Chamber.
THE AGREEMENTS
The agreements last up to 10 years: they can be renewed or terminated earlier, with a notice (of the State or Region) increased from 6 to 12 months, to avoid misalignments with the school year, with reference to subjects relating to education .
Equalization measures are also envisaged to avoid economic imbalances between the Regions that adhere to differentiated autonomy and those that do not.
It is the risk that the premier wants to avoid.
"We are not resigned to the idea that there are Serie A and B territories and services," Giorgia Meloni said in recent days.

"This reform doesn't break a damn thing, it simply asks that the tasks that the State performs today be carried out by the Regions, obtaining the figures that the State spends today. So it's just a different administrative organization".
So the president of the Lombardy Region Attilio Fontana.
In the meantime, criticisms are coming from the opposition
, above all for the choice to discuss the bill before the Lep are there, to entrust their definition to the Prime Minister, as well as not to allow Parliament to participate in the definition of the agreements.
