"Apulian agriculture and the protection of farmers' income are among our priorities. For this, I want to clarify that the Mipaaft on the issue of frosts in Puglia intervened in 'sanatorium' because to make the declaration on the law 102 required the resolution of the region delimiting the territories affected by adversity within 60 days from the occurrence of the event , plus any 30 days in case of extraordinary. The Puglia Region has not carried out the deliberations in terms therefore we are intervening to correct mistakes of others. We have also presented an amendment to be included in the 'Morandi decree' and was the only one to be removed. In the stability and in the financial it has always been declared inadmissible by subject.
In all the decree-laws, 'dignity', 'extension of terms' and 'simplifications', we have included the rule in the drafting phase of the article and in the amendment phase of conversion into law but it has always been excluded because it is considered lacking the requirements of necessity and urgency. Finally, I remember that it had entered the last draft of the dignity decree but it was also removed in this case. We will include it in all the measures because we are aware of the situation, but protesting against the Mipaaft demonstrates little attention and knowledge of the facts as well as an unfounded prejudice. "
Thus the Minister of Agricultural, Food and Forestry Policies, Sen. Gian Marco Centinaio, on the issue of frosts in Puglia.
