Budget Law: the government works at “quota 102” and citizenship income lighter

One of the most delicate knots concerns the Tax. The executive would be oriented to devote about 8 billion to the tax cut but from the control room they would have come pushed to foresee an even more substantial intervention. “In the control room we were made a proposal of about seven billion for the tax cut, plus a billion that was already in the budget: we think there is room for a further effort. All parties are asking to cut taxes: it is a bit strange that it is done with a short arm, with a third of the resources of the maneuver. We ask that it reaches at least ten billion, we asked for it and also FI “, said Luigi Marattin of Italia Viva, leaving Palazzo Chigi with Minister Elena Bonetti. “The system of the maneuver is excellent, with many pro-growth choices. But if there is money in the income, it is right to cut taxes”. Still on the subject of citizenship income, Marattin asked that “there be a reform of the mechanism and we are given reassurance on this”.
Towards structural 10-day paternity leave
The next maneuver should make the ten-day paternity leave structural. It is learned at the end of the meeting, in which Italia viva has returned to insist on the measure. Italia Viva would also have asked for the reduction from 22% to 4% of VAT on sanitary napkins, the so-called ‘tampon tax’, and to make the anti-violence plan and gender equality structural, including bonuses for the certification of gender policies. . In addition, the request is to allocate resources from the tax cut to incentivize female work with a deduction, in particular for women who return to work after maternity.

The Budget Planning Document that the government will send to the Commission today will indicate both the overall scope of the Maneuver and the scope of the most significant interventions, ie how many resources the executive intends to allocate for each intervention. For the text of the actual Maneuver it will be necessary to wait a few more days. The indication of Brussels would be to send by 20 October but it is very likely that the government will take a few more days.
