"Of the results" that we have obtained since we have been in government, those that have given us the most satisfaction are the economic data, with the "record number of employed people", "stable contracts" and female employment: " yesterday was March 8" and was "one of the brightest".
Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said this at the signing of the agreement for development and cohesion with the Umbria Region.
The prime minister also spoke about "real family income", citing OECD data: "In Italy, it grows by 1.4%, seven times more than the average of other countries".
And "in Italy the risk of poverty decreases by two points", she added, citing data from "two days ago".
After a joking aside - "we have been in government for 14-15 months, but to me it seems like 15 years -" Meloni underlined that "we do not live in a nation made up of 20 monads" and this is why a "strategy" is necessary national adding: "We are capable of strengthening a territory if it is linked to everything else".
"Last year the revenue agency certified an increase in revenue of 26 billion euros. When you don't disturb and, on the contrary, try to lend a hand to those who produce the wealth, the State benefits."
"In the same year, 2023, the revenue agency also tells us that we had a record for recovering tax evasion. An extraordinary figure."
Meloni spoke of "a different approach", "collaborative" and "non-vexatious, for which the State risks becoming an enemy".

'Recovery of record tax evasion, the State is not the enemy'
"Last year the revenue agency certified an increase in revenue of 26 billion euros. When you don't disturb and, on the contrary, try to lend a hand to those who produce the wealth, the State benefits."
"In the same year, 2023, the revenue agency also tells us that we had a record for recovering tax evasion. An extraordinary figure", said the prime minister.
Meloni spoke of "a different approach", "collaborative" and "non-vexatious, for which the State risks becoming an enemy".
And he added: "If you're in difficulty I'll come to you, if you want to cheat me then I have to be decisive in my reaction."
