Dl Culture, withdrawn the League's anti-superintendence amendment. But the party does not give up

The League has withdrawn theCulture DL amendment that aimed to make the opinion of the Superintendenciesnon-binding . However, this does not mean that the party led by Matteo Salvini has put aside its ideas on the work of the Superintendencies, on the contrary: the battle over the opinions of the Superintendencies is only postponed, and the matter, the League announced, will result in a future ad hoc bill.

“Negotiations are underway with center-right allies, however, the League is not giving up the principle,” the League’s group leader in the House Culture Committee, Rossano Sasso, told AgenziaCult. “In fact, the filing of an urgent bill is ready, which will obviously have as a central pivot of action the unbureaucratization and proximity to freelancers and citizens.” The amendment bore the first signature of MP Gianangelo Bof, who comments, “The League’s amendment with my first signature (withdrawn in view of a Ddl and a Pdl) on the stop to the binding opinion of the Superintendencies intervenes on the third part of Dl 42 of 2004, which does not include cultural and monumental heritage but only landscape. By the way, in these cases the opinion is not excluded, but remains mandatory. It would be good, before talking, to read the texts. Because there are two cases: either you know them well but want to brag, or you do not understand them.” Bof, too, however, comments that the League is not giving up despite the withdrawal of the amendment: “The League on stopping the binding opinion of the Superintendencies, with the exception of cultural and monumental heritage, has never changed its mind and never will. The willingness to withdraw the amendment is in view of a concrete commitment, made with the many citizens and businesses who have asked us for it, which we will pursue with two bills in the House and the Senate. Simplifying with an autonomist vision: this is the country we want.” Bof also does not spare an attack on the oppositions: “Incomprehensible the raising of shields by a certain opposition against our proposal on the non-binding opinion of the Superintendencies. Strange that the left, which is used to lecturing, does not know that there is already a precedent on mandatory non-binding opinion. But if this is about green policies, then fine. Let’s talk about the photovoltaic regulation that provides in eligible areas a mandatory but non-binding opinion for the Superintendencies. For that matter, we understand well, that Dems and company care more about environmentalist turbo follies than citizens.”

From the oppositions, restrained jubilation over the withdrawal of the amendment. “Good news and bad news from the majority,” says Elizabeth Piccolotti of AVS. “The good news is that after protests from the oppositions this morning, the League withdrew the amendment whose approval would have severely curtailed the protection powers of the Superintendencies. The bad news is that this step backward appears to be only momentary.” Anna Laura Orrico of M5S says, “With the withdrawal of the League amendment that aimed to cripple the superintendencies and admit our heritage to the mercy of private interests and speculators, we have won a battle but still not the war. We are waiting for the measure to reach the courtroom to be assured that this blitz will be averted for good. However, we are proud to have achieved this very important goal in committee, where the 5 Star Movement has been at the forefront. And, it must be said, even Alexander Giuli in this case did the right thing by not bending to the leghist diktats.”
