The Renzi government wants to open a table for amend the Fornero law on pensions by introducing greater flexibility in terms of exitbut to succeed it will not increase public debt, because "he does not want to unload other burdens on future generations". This was announced by the Minister of Labour, Giuliano Poletti, during the presentation of the Covip annual report.
“We have to find a balance between greater flexibility – added the minister – and public finance compatibility. The intervention must be at no cost to future generations. We will address the issue in the stability law” starting from “companies that want a generational change and, therefore, will partially bear the costs. We need to understand the point of balance between the citizens' interest in leaving work and the burden on the community”.
Poletti then replied indirectly to the president of INPS, Tito Boeri, who yesterday said he was against any intervention that could increase the debt and thus unload its burden on future generations. Boeri had underlined that the main proposal on the table, the draft law of the Damiano-Baretta billcould cost the state up to 8,5 billion euros.
