ROMA – The government is ready to approve a new decree to stop the sending of tax bills again. And extend the ban on layoffs for sectors in crisis, such as textiles, clothing, leather goods. Both blocks would expire on June 30th. The Council of Ministers could meet Tuesday 29 June. The new stop to selective layoffs will be accompanied by other weeks of free Cig Covid (covered by the state).
Here then is political mediation, after theaccident of May 20. The rule inserted in the Sostegni bis decree by the Minister of Labor Andrea Orlando (later approved by the CDM himself) had been canceled by Prime Minister Draghi following strong protests by Confindustria. It provided for the extension of the freeze on layoffs from 30 June to 28 August for large companies that had used the Covid Cig in June. Extension then rejected.
The match then moved on to Parliament, where the Sostegni bis decree is under discussion. But only Pd, Leu and M5S have filed amendments to extend the block. While Lega, Forza Italia, Italia Viva no. Hence it political stalemate who tied the hands of Prime Minister Draghi, who wanted to intervene only in the face of a strong political agreement. This understanding has now been found. But we will only intervene on companies in crisis. The other big companies will be able to lay off from first of July. The small ones from November 1st.
