June 9, 2020He discusses the Colao plan, after in an interview with La Stampa the manager in charge of the task force Covid-19 spoke about "ideas for the revitalization of Italy". Now "it depends on Conte," said the manager. "We did our part. We wanted to help the government get out of the paralysis in which the country is located, and now we can say 'mission accomplished'. Now it's up to politics." So Vittorio Colao passes the ball, delivering the results of his work in an interview with La Stampa in Turin in which he declares "very satisfied, we did an excellent job, 46 summary pages plus 102 ideas for the revitalization of an affected Italy from an unprecedented crisis. " Meanwhile, the States General announced by the government and expected from Friday are confirmed: "Three days of work, I don't think there are any changes," reports the Undersecretary for Health, Sandra Zampa. 

"Starting from business and work"
Colao defines it "the maximum possible effort", "a plan of modernization across the board and the removal of the country's backwardness" of which "even Conte is very happy". Then Colao reflects: "Let's be clear, it would not be fair to have who knows what miraculous expectations on our package. But here it is about helping the government to get out of this crisis, transforming the emergency into an opportunity" And these would be enclosed in the fact that " we must help you, to get the country system out of paralysis and to bring all the souls of Parliament and society together ". With 102 total proposals, on which "I will be satisfied if the government makes at least forty of them his own," says the manager at the helm of the Covid-19 task force, starting with the fundamental thing for him, namely "the business and work chapter" because "those are the most intricate knots to untie, otherwise the country will not restart".

War on undeclared and limits on cash
And among the first things it is a matter of "favoring the emergence through Voluntary Disclosure opportunities for the purposes of regularization, providing for a mechanism of amnesty and incentives and reducing contribution and tax wedge" and "to introduce the Voluntary Disclosure on cash and other values ​​deriving from undeclared income, against the payment of a substitute tax and the use for a minimum period of time of a significant part of the amount in assets functional to the recovery ".

"Economic revitalization and gender impact assessment"
According to Colao there are all the conditions for the implementation of his plan. "At the official presentation of the Report we also did our little show: we wanted three women on our Committee to present the highlights of the plan on business and work, the environment and gender equality. An unprecedented innovation, the latter, to which we care a lot ... ". In fact, for the first time in a revitalization plan of the Italian economy and society the" Vig "is introduced, that is the" Gender impact assessment ", necessary to integrate the full equality between man and woman in decision making. But more generally, Colao hopes that the work done will "open at least a great debate on the things that can and must be done to restart the country, to redesign the future in the name of social cohesion and to draw an Italy best to deliver to new generations. "

"Now it depends on Conte"
The Colao doctrine is always the same: "It is not for us to decide. We give input for the Italian rebirth. As indeed we did with the first document on the reopening: the government has implemented, and in three weeks we unlocked them, restarting a good chunk of the national economy. Now, if he deems it appropriate, Conte can proceed in the same way. It depends only on him. I did my duty as manager. Now, as Cincinnato, I I go back to my gardens "ends the Colao interview.

Delrio: "The plan is a contribution, synthesis with government program"
"The Colao Plan is a contribution to the discussion for the recovery that must synthesise with the government program: building Italy for the next 20 years. Sustainability, safe work and communities, the fundamental objectives ". This was stated by the leader of the Democratic Party in the Chamber of Deputies Graziano Delrio on Radio Anch'io. "The new phase requires a change of pace, a change in the government. I started reading the Piano Colao, some things convince me, others less so. The thing that does not convince me at all is the fact that, as a former mayor and as an ex Minister, Italy cannot always pretend that nothing has happened, for example - observes Delrio - school construction: in 2013, when the Renzi government left, it had 200, 300 million, now it has almost 9 billion available. Why did some municipalities, some regions, manage to carry out the plans, others not? We have to go specifically to understand what has gone wrong in the past and why. "" I don't like the word amnesty. This country has a big problem with tax evasion. tax and must continue to fight it. Electronic invoicing has been set up - observes the group leader dem - There are the means to combat tax evasion effectively and continue to remove this which is the real cancer of this country, which takes resources to health and s public cook. "

Castelli: "We need political confrontation"
The measures contained in the Colao plan, including those on amnesties, "need a political confrontation which is precisely the aim of the next few days. I believe that there is and continues to be a problem of evasion and it must be resolved". This was stated by the Undersecretary for Economics, Laura Castelli, interviewed on Radio Anch'io on Rai Radio1. "In recent years, both with Count 1 and with Count 2 we have recovered a lot of money" said Castelli "This country has appreciated the decrees, like the dignity decree. There are times of crisis like this in which it is right to think further. "

Meloni: "Everyone at home"
"Instead of thinking about breaking down the bureaucracy and removing all the hateful obligations that slow down our economy, Conte's technocrats study solutions to eliminate cash from circulation. Almost as if he had followed the advice of Romano Prodi, Vittorio Colao's task force proposes to tax withdrawals at the ATM! It is time to send home the pentapiddina brancaleone army and all the technocrats following them, Italy needs a strong government that has the main objective of returning the citizen the freedom to do business and decide how, when and where to spend their money without the spy state checking and taxing each single transaction on behalf of the banks ". This is what the president of Fratelli d'Italia, Giorgia Meloni writes on Facebook.
