The brigade "no", for them it is too tiring. Private vigilantes, almost always retired, however, yes. Even if they represent an extra cost for Rome's taxpayers. The Rays administration is ready to negotiate with the trade unions of the traffic police who in these days, as told yesterday by the Messenger, are protesting the new task provided for by the "Urban Police Regulations" just approved. That is, enforce the ban on "climbing, lying or sitting" on the monumental pools. Starting from the Trevi Fountain, where the white helmets were sent 24 hours a day, precisely to drive tourists away from the travertine edges and avoid annoying bivouacs.

"We can't just be lifeguards - declared Francesco # Croce, secretary of the Uil Public Function of Rome - IFollowing those approaching the fountain is a task that debases the agents on duty», He says. And so? The brigade would like a barrier, an infrastructure that prevents tourists from sitting by the pool. The mayor Raggi agreed to meet with the unions on September 5th to re-discuss the "operational duties" of the agents, who, failing that, went so far as to hypothesize a "state of agitation"

The president of the Culture Commission, the Eleonora grillina #I earn he reports that the police will be exempted from the job they consider too tiring. And to replace them there will be private employees. Accurate Earnings: "We have already discussed the issue in the Movement; barriers are not a viable solution, because we must think of the harmony of the context in which they would be inserted. We are therefore Easterners to turn back to volunteer associations that could take care of removing tourists, for example the carabinieri on leave, as has been experienced for a few months in the past ”.

The question, the messenger specifies, on the other hand, cannot slip from the hands of the cultural heritage superintendents who, as regards interventions on the protection of monuments, always have the last word. At least they should. If the offices of Palazzo Lovatelli, headquarters of the Capitoline Superintendency headed by Maria Vittoria Marini Clarelli, choose the line of caution and do not take a stand in these hours, the question is kept under strict surveillance by the Ministry of Cultural Heritage.
