"An urgent meeting with Education Minister Gelmini, because the issue of school safety is a priority." I ask the Presidents of the Regions, after the Conference held on 22 April.
Regions emphasize that the one billion euro allocated by the Budget 2009 (read more), 235 million has been diverted on emergency earthquake in Italy. "There was a plan to extract 350 million - said the President of the Basilicata region, Vito De Filippo - but many regions do not end up with assignments, with the allocation of funds and assistance to do. "
At this point the regions they want clarity on both measures is to cover about 650 million billion € of departure. I am therefore the 350 million euro which will now get the green light by the CIPE.
As president of the Basilicata region, De Filippo added that some regions of the South did not share the view that once you use the resources of the Fund for Underdeveloped Areas (FAS): "I consider him - he said - another episode of a series of muggings on the FAS. "
and use of funds is also addressed by FAS President of the Region Puglia, Nichi Vendola: "Puglia will be heavily hit hypothesis provided by ministers and Matteoli Gelmini, who wanted to ignore the previous criteria that gave a hand to the southern regions, where school facilities are in a state of decay very large compared to other parts of the country. "
"If before - added the commissioner the right to study the region of Apulia, Gianfranco Viesti - mandatory 85% of the resources of Fas for the safety of the schools went to the south, today the criteria give priority to the number of buildings school and the school population. Meeting the criteria of CIPE resolutions, would have been entitled to Puglia a share of total resources FAS by 16.7%, with the ministerial level, is rather to the region of the 6.92% which corresponds to an amount of 24.8 million expected over the allocation of 56.3 million.
