Awareness of compliance with anti-contagion measures, checks throughout the province that also involve local police. With the aim of keeping Liguria in the white zone in the face of the fourth wave of the pandemic. This is what the prefect of Savona asked in a letter to the mayors of the province. “This is an objective that is not only of public health, but of broader value, as it is likely to bring widespread positive effects also under the profiles of ordinary livability and the revitalization of the economy – writes the prefect Cananà -. Its achievement requires the contribution of all the components of the Savona System, from the individual citizen to civil society as a whole, from the institutional bodies to the economic-productive world. For this, I turn to SS.LL. an appeal that is all the more heartfelt, given the approach of Christmas and the end of the year, usually characterized by a much higher mobility of people “
As is known, in the next few days (partly starting from 6 December, partly starting from 15 December) – continues the prefect – the containment and safeguard measures introduced by the decree law of 26 November 2021, n. 172 (extension of the vaccination obligation to new categories, extension of the use of the green pass, establishment of the reinforced green pass, intensification of controls). With regard to the new anti-contagion measures, it is essential that the SS.LL. carry out a timely and widespread information work, aimed above all at raising the awareness of the population and the managers of the activities subject to limitations to behave virtuously. But it is also important, with a view to deterrence, to let the respective communities know that a phase of tighter and more rigorous checks on compliance with anti-contagion measures, including those relating to the green pass is about to begin “
As for controls, municipal agents will also be at the forefront together with the police.
“In this regard, the SS.LL are requested – the prefect writes to the mayors – to issue the appropriate directives to the respective Local Police Corps so that, in the weeks to come, they make an additional effort, like the State Police Forces in terms of anticovid-19 controls, it being evident that the effectiveness of the new anti-contagion measures is certainly largely linked to the degree of spontaneous compliance by the citizens, but the intensification of police services also plays an important role. The ordinances that will be issued by the Quaestor to regulate the provincial control system, as well as regulating the use of the State Police Forces, will also contain appropriate indications on the procedures for the competition of the Local Police “.
