Thus the Prime Minister, Giuseppe Conte in the Chamber of the Chamber in view of the next EU council, scheduled for 15 and 16 October.

"We must not allow delays to arise due to a divisive use of principles and rules, such as those relating to the rule of law, on whose application the European Council has already adopted its decisions on July 21 last" - he continues - "This project to relaunch the European economy, in fact, constitutes an unprecedented opportunity also to bring Italy back on a path of growth and sustainable, equitable and inclusive development ". 

"After having given an ambitious and timely response to the pandemic crisis, on the European side we must continue to work quickly on the level of regulatory implementation of the Next Generation EU program", explained the premier.

The relaunch represents an unprecedented opportunity for Italy's growth ", recalling that the Italian plan" fits into the wake of the priorities set by the European Commission, which are a green and digital transition ". And he explained that" 40% of expenses will be addressed to environmental sustainability, energy efficiency and circular economy;

20 percent in digitization ". Then it ensures" the full involvement of Parliament on the plan and transparency on the implementation of the projects. "" The effectiveness of the reforms should not be thwarted by restrictive budgetary approaches "she continues.

Conte argues that during the negotiations with the UK it is "essential to maintain the unity of the member states alongside the European Commission and the negotiating Commissioner. . The time left is not much and for such a complex negotiation it must be used wisely. To the 'No Deal' we prefer the search for an agreement until the last useful moment but not at any cost: it must be a fair agreement ".

Conte - yesterday evening - during his speech in the Senate assured: "I will evaluate with the utmost attention the proposal, contained in the report" of the Senate commissions on the Recovery Plan, "once to guarantee appropriate incentives to the implementing bodies for the progress of the projects, as well as penalties for the inactivity of those who do not respect the established time schedule ".
