The Maneuver is still standing in the Budget Committee in the Senate, where the vote on the 700 amendments reported by the parties has yet to begin, from the more than 6000 initially presented. Above all, the government’s maxi-amendment is expected, which should mainly incorporate the tax cuts resulting from the agreement between the majority forces. Majority force, however, which remain divided on the subject of folders. The Center-right has moved compactly in recent days calling for a new postponement for the payment of the documents whose payment has remained frozen during the most acute phase of the emergency. “” A solution to the avalanche of folders arriving in the first months of 2022 with extension procedures that allow citizens and businesses not to find themselves in difficulty again “, said the coordinator of Forza Italia, also threatening a stop to the maneuver in the absence of a new postponement.
A postponement that always yesterday, however, the Deputy Minister of the Economy Laura Castelli it seemed to exclude. “At the tax table, with all the majority, a precise path was chosen, then approved by the Council of Ministers, which is worth 8 billion. In this scheme there are no tax bills. I also think it is an important issue, but very expensive, and not contained in the resources available to Parliament. The majority in the Senate, which works on the budget law, knows it well “, he told Ansa.
