(ANSA) - ROME, MARCH 28 - The 5% VAT cut on gas is extended for the second quarter of the year and is also extended to district heating and thermal energy produced with methane.
This is what the draft decree on bills provides.
The general system charges on gas are zeroed for the three months April-June, while the contribution introduced in favor of consumers is reduced up to 5,000 cubic metres.
"In consideration of the reduction in wholesale natural gas prices - reads the text - the negative rates of the UG2C tariff component applied to consumption brackets up to 5,000 cubic meters per year are confirmed only for the month of April 2023, in an amount equal to 35% of the value applied in the previous quarter".
The draft does not mention the charges on electricity, until now eliminated.
They should therefore come back into effect from the next tariff update.
