March 31, 2020 "Children can leave the house if accompanied by a parent, as long as they remain near the home, to the extent strictly necessary and the rules of social distancing are scrupulously respected. It is the responsibility of the parent to strictly avoid any contact with the others".

This is the position of the Guarantor Authority for children and adolescents Filomena Albano regarding the possibility for the little ones to walk near their home even in this period of sanitary emergency. The Guarantor, for this reason, wrote today to the Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte and to the ministers of Health, Equal Opportunities and the Family and the Interior.

"Already now - observes Albano - by giving a systematic interpretation to the current regulations, it must be considered possible for a parent to accompany their children outside the home. However, I asked the Government to evaluate the opportunity to clarify, in the next steps, any interpretative doubt, to guarantee the adoption by all of the necessary precautions so that the exit of minors can take place to the extent strictly necessary and without danger to individual and collective health ".

Hour of air for the children, therefore, with all due caution. "Also because, if this were not possible, we would end up denying children, who more than others need movement in the open air because of their age, a possibility already granted to adults", concludes the Guarantor.
