"Separatist" Ecobonus: it gave more money to the North, claims the CGIL

If Italy didn't have a North and a South for politics it would be a disgrace. Luckily (!?) we have it and therefore the opportunities to complain and argue are never lacking. Especially when there's money to spend. The Pnrr today it is the most suitable case for the dispute between right and left. It was designed to smooth out the differences between the two parts of the country and regulations have been approved that allocate 40% of the resources to the South. However, the government has changed the cards on some crucial programs. Environmental incentives through the Ecobonus system have ended up more in Lombardy and Veneto than in the southern regions.

Amid cries of pain and populist defenses, it was abolished by decree. Whoever had, had and whoever gave, gave. The minister Giancarlo Giorgetti he self-celebrated how much Giuseppe Conte and the five-star array have become depressed. Now the CGIL has gone through the data of the Ministry of the Environment and discovered that of the over 13 billion euros of Ecobonus only 3,617 billion they were spent in the South. Lombardy and Veneto took two billion and 900 million and 1 billion and 600 million respectively. Environmental separatism manipulated by Rome.

The numbers don't lie, writes the CGIL, and if two strong regions in the North draw with the South it is no coincidence. A match with a biased referee. The two leaders of Lombardy and Veneto are from the League and so...". The criteria for choosing the financed interventions, with particular reference to those that replace national resources (so-called existing projects), are opaque if not completely obscure" he said Christian Ferrari, confederal secretary of the CGIL. The Pnrr was supposed to reduce energy consumption by 40% and improve two energy classes of residential buildings. Has the Ecobonus proved to be too generous and for a few? The North was in a good place and is now in a better place. The South awaits the next round.
