Veneto Region has made a request to the government to reopen discussions on the transfer of competences for nine matters where Essential Levels of Performance (Lep) are not defined. However, Nello Musumeci, leader of Lega in Veneto, is opposed to this request. He believes that there are “problems of opportunity” within the majority coalition and among the Regions of Southern Italy. Musumeci emphasizes the importance of all regions starting from the same line regarding autonomy.
Musumeci urges Zaia, regional leader of Veneto, to focus on identifying the Lep before proceeding with negotiations. He stresses the need for a fair and equal process for all regions. However, Zaia is determined to move forward, citing the law on differentiated autonomy which he believes will benefit citizens by enabling faster response to disastrous events within regional territories.
The Lega secretariat supports Zaia, criticizing the opposition’s resistance to progress and efficiency brought by autonomy. At the same time, Musumeci clarifies his position in support of differentiated autonomy, emphasizing the importance of defining the Lep and suggesting that other requests may be untimely. Fontana of Lombardy also plans to negotiate the transfer of competences with the government.
According to Calderoli law, the government has 60 days to evaluate Venetian request and allocate necessary resources. The negotiation process will begin between State and Region with significant involvement from Prime Minister. The evolution of negotiations is under close observation as key decisions are made to advance autonomy in regions like Veneto and Lombardy
