The moment of referendum on cutting parliamentarians, with the polls that will open on Sunday 20 and Monday 21 in conjunction with the regional elections (there will be voting in seven Regions) and the first round of the administrative (more than 1,100 municipalities involved).
Italians will be asked to confirm or not the reform, strongly desired by the 5 Star Movement, definitively approved by the Chamber in October of scroso. A referendum was necessary after the presentation of 71 companies by so many senators.
The reform provides for a decrease in the number of deputies (630 to 400) and dei senators chosen (from 315 to 200), for a general scissors that would thus affect 345 parliamentarians in total.
But, who will be the deputies and senators who will go home if Yes wins in the referendum? Nothing would change immediately, since the cut would go into effect from next legislaturebut much will also depend on the electoral law in the future.
Referendum: who would be cut?
In case of victory of Yes in the referendum, none of the current deputies or senators will be forced to pack up and abandon the Roman cotton. In fact, the reform would come into force as of the next legislature.
To understand how this cut would occur, you can refer to a file prepared by the Chamber in recent weeks, where the decrease in parliamentary representation of each Region was calculated in the event of a confirmation of the reform at the polls.
However, it should be specified that this simulation refers to thecurrent electoral law, the Rosatellum, which in any case will have to be modified by redesigning the schools if the Yes wins.
However, the government is willing to pass a any new electoral law, called Brescellum and which was scheduled in the House at the end of the month after the referendum. It remains to be seen whether the speech would continue even in the event of a No.
In conclusion, with a Yes victory, no MP would be “cut off” immediately, as long as seating assignments will change It will have to be seen with what electoral law will the Italians be called to express themselves in the next elections.
