21 September 2019 "We want to schedule the cutting of parliamentarians starting from next week with the conference of the group leaders in the Chamber and therefore in the coming weeks must be the cut of the parliamentarians which is a necessary step". This was announced by the Minister of Relations with Parliament, Federico D'Incà, member of the M5S, explaining that "within the programmatic avenues of this Government there must be the start of a great constitutional reform of our country that will bring effectiveness and efficiency".

Di Maio: "Parliamentarians cut by mid-October"
On this issue, Foreign Minister and leader M5s Luigi Di Maio intervened yesterday, who reiterated that, with regard to the agreements with the new government ally (also in view of the next regional elections), the first test of this majority is the cutting of the parliamentarians. "It must be done in the first two weeks of October. And then the real test of the nine for us and for this government will be the budget law of December. The minimum wage is to avoid the VAT increase - he underlined - we must give to the workers a minimum wage and lower taxes ". Then Di Maio stated: "No ultimatum" and, in any case, "I don't think there will be friction in the government, but it is a great test to strengthen trust".

Pd, Del Rio: "We have made a commitment, we will respect it"
The Pd shows caution and recalls what is written in the program. That is, the cut of parliamentarians must be counterbalanced by other reforms, in a parallel path. Therefore, no hurry and above all no diktat. "The Democratic Party must not pass any reliability test, as shown by the decline in the spread since we are in the government. We are always a factor of stability. We have made a commitment on the cutting of parliamentarians and we will respect it. Trust is a precious commodity". Thus the leader of the Democratic Party in the Graziano Delrio Chamber.
