(Finance) – Green light in the Council of Ministers at PNRR decree. “This decree not only finances all the interventions that came out of the Pnrr but identifies a method, like that of the commissioners, to speed up some procedures”. This was underlined by the Minister for European Affairs, the South, Cohesion Policies and the Pnrr, Raffaele Fitto, during the press conference following the Council of Ministers. “The government did not remove these projects due to its own choice – the Minister reiterated – but because they were not accountable and would not have completed their journey within the time frame”.
