Spending review, the proposals of the Senate

From the abolition of public holidays to cuts of almost 17 billion, from the revision of the agreements with the Holy See to the obligation for the Quirinale, Parliament and the Constitutional Court to take immediate cost containment measures up to the establishment in every public administration of a "spending review" manager ”. Various proposals emerge from the examination in the Senate, in the Constitutional Affairs and Budget commissions, of the decree on the rationalization of public spending.

Only 112 amendments have been presented by senators. Among the suggestions, the question of the festivities to be suppressed and celebrated on the upcoming Sunday reappears. The issue is the subject of an amendment by the PDL. The rule was included in the summer maneuver of 2011 but with an amendment by the Democratic Party April 25, May 2 and June 25 (but not the patronal holidays) had been saved. Now the new amendment calls for calling into question April XNUMX and May XNUMX and for religious holidays it suggests that the government be authorized "to conclude with the Holy See the revision of the agreements concluded regarding the holidays".

The League is asking for public spending cuts of at least 2013 billion euros for 16,8, which would add to the 4,2 billion expected for 2012. For the Democratic Party, however, each public administration should appoint a manager responsible for review'. The IDV asks to include in the measure the obligation for the constitutional bodies (Quirinale, Senate, Chamber, Consulta) to adopt immediate initiatives to contain expenditure and to stop the appointment of the extraordinary commissioner or at least who lends his work as a free.
