The call on Friday evening, 48 hours before the launch of the maneuver. A meeting lasting an hour and a half with 17 associations at the table. Maurizio Landini isn’t there and doesn’t show up at the meeting at Palazzo Chigi. Sending the government a warning, which could soon translate into an even more decisive reaction.
In the meantime, new pieces are appearing on the manoeuvre, illustrated to the social partners, such as the allocation of 5 billion for the PA and the surprise opening, although still sketchy, on the Superbonus which would concern, according to ANCE, a new possible extension. But the news that will arrive in the Council of Ministers on Monday also concerns taxation, with a mini-IRES to facilitate those who hire.
The meeting between the government and the social partners to illustrate the maneuver gets off to an uphill start, with the secretary of the CGIL surprising everyone a few hours before the meeting: being called at the last minute and without other opportunities for negotiation means “not recognizing the role of the parties social,” he says. Landini deserts the appointment but the CGIL participates with a confederal secretary. Not even Uil leader Pierpaolo Bombardieri, who is in Paris for a demonstration by European trade unions, is at the meeting. The CGIL will meet the general assembly on Wednesday 18 October to evaluate the maneuver and the decisions to be implemented, without going so far as to exclude the use of any instrument. Strike included. But not before having also spoken about it with the other unions. The day before, Uil will take a position. The CISL appears cautious: “We will evaluate, as always, without prejudice”, says Luigi Sbarra who instead participates in the meeting at Palazzo Chigi, “without ideological fury but also without giving discounts to anyone”.
However, in the face of criticism, the Minister of Economy Giancarlo Giorgetti is unfazed. “We believe we have found the right balance” to make “resources available for the weaker classes” and rigor on the accounts, he assures from Marrakech. At the table with the unions “he defends the decision to resort to the extra-trade deficit in favor of low incomes, claiming not to govern “governed by the spread”. A “responsible” maneuver, the minister repeats to everyone, which complies with European rules and makes cuts “significant” expenditure of at least 2 billion. Considering the deficit (15.7 billion) we already reach three quarters of what should be the overall amount of this ‘light’ maneuver, projected towards a figure of around 22 billion. The lion’s share is made by cutting the wedge, currently financed for 2024, which is supported by resources for the Public Administration, especially for healthcare, and measures for families and the birth rate.
For pensions, a limited package of interventions, with the extension of quota 103 and the slightly expanded social Ape and the possible revisiting of the women’s option. The first resources for the bridge over the strait are also guaranteed, assures minister Matteo Salvini, which should be drawn from the development and cohesion funds. Monday’s council of ministers will also launch the first measures of the tax reform, on which the deputy minister Maurizio Leo intends to proceed “in forced stages” with a provision in each council of ministers. It starts with two legislative decrees, the first with the new three-rate Irpef (standardizing incomes up to 28 thousand euros at 23%), also in this case financed for 2024, and the new mini-Ires with a reduction in taxation for those who hire and an increase if those hired are young people, women and those who leave the citizen’s income. The other decree, on international taxation, contains the Global minimum tax for multinationals, rules on residence for both natural persons and joint-stock companies and rules on ‘reshoring’, to incentivize companies to bring their activities back to Italy. However, the pruning of tax expenditures has been postponed (“it is a long and laborious job”, explains Leo), while an intervention on inheritance taxes has been ruled out: a hypothesis that has arisen in the last few hours, on which Forza Italia’s wall immediately rose . Monday’s menu could also include the decree with the endowment of 3.2 billion in deficits obtained from Nadef, to be allocated to the advance adjustment of the ISTAT adjustment for 2024 pensions, measures for PA staff and the management of migratory flows .
