Conte in House: we are concerned about culture and tourism, work to reopen safely

He also spoke about culture and tourism, Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte, speaking at the Chamber of Deputies this morning to deliver the urgent briefing on the measures adopted by the government for the recovery of the country’s economic and productive activities.

“We look with apprehension at the world of entertainment, theater, music, cinema,” Conte said. “This morning Minister Franceschini will have a meeting with a representative delegation. We are also willing to work with all the representatives of the world of culture, cinema, entertainment, which is very close to our hearts.”

As for the tourism sector, Conte said it “will definitely be one of the hardest hit, also because it will hardly be able to recover and make up for what happened and all the detrimental consequences on the economic level. And it will probably feel the sting of these restrictive measures for several months.”

“We know,” the prime minister added, “how much this crisis is affecting all these activities and the many others that I will not mention in detail, all the workers in these sectors. The government is fully aware of the need to allow the reopening of businesses to the public and personal services, fully restore them as soon as epidemiological data trends allow.”

The government, Conte then concluded, is working these days “to define with the utmost accuracy the specific protocols and therefore necessary for a safe resumption of all these activities.”
