May 19, 2020 "I promised that we would not forget the summer camps, but that we would reorganize them in safety. In fact, we gave directions and allocated 185 million euros, the highest investment in this sector in the history of the Republic. Now it is to the Regions to decide whether to anticipate or postpone the start, with respect to the date of 15 June, based on their epidemiological trend ". This was stated by the Minister for Equal Opportunities and the Elena Bonetti Family on Facebook, where she posts her interview published today in the Gazzettino.

"I think that in general the philosophy to follow is to open as soon as possible - underlined the Minister for the Family - compatibly with the ability to organize the service according to criteria of protection of the safety of individual children and the community, because restarting the contagion would cause serious harm to everyone. " 

Bonetti added that "as regards the reactivation of integrated services, ie nursery schools and kindergartens, so far there is no approval from the Technical-Scientific Committee, but we are working to create the conditions for it to be possible to reopen them. In this way the Regions - concluded the Minister - within the autonomy foreseen by the law-decree, can extend the outdoor recreational activities also to the 0-3 band, clearly with different indications according to the age ".
