“Our elections can be legitimately criticized, we are in a democracy,” says the Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte At the press conference. But I want to say that we have not made indiscriminate decisions. To prevent the curve from escaping us, it is essential to reduce the main social occasions. Only in this way can we decongest public transport, avoid crowds, lighten the monitoring system ”.
“We cannot fool ourselves that with an epidemiological curve that continues to rise, people go calmly, to the gym, to the restaurant, without fear,” adds Conte. “If we respect these measures, we have a good chance of facing December with some serenity, without a stressed health system. Otherwise, we will face the need for a emergency shutdown, we must avoid it. “
The non-refundable snacks “will reach the account by bank transfer of the Tax Agency, it is the most efficient way, we are sure that in mid-November those who have joined the first edition will be able to receive it, immediately afterwards also the others”, Conte explains. “When we unanimously approved the decree in the CDM there were no other alternative proposals on the table,” says the prime minister, alluding to the controversy raised by criticism of Italia Viva.
The Ristori decree “is fast, simple and effective”, underlines the Minister of Economy Roberto Gualtieri. And “the non-refundable subsidy will be paid automatically – not applied – to more than 300,000 companies that have already had it, so we expect to have all the transfers in mid-November.” For those who have never received aid, “we will activate a new procedure to send the application”. The new decree “mobilizes a substantial mass of resources: 5,400 million of net debt, 6,200 million of net balance to be financed,” says Gualtieri.
“Soft drinks are important.” Minister Gualtieri gives some examples. “THE restorers will be divided into three sales bands and will take an average amount respectively of € 5,173, € 13,920 and € 25k“So I too theater: “Circa 5 thousand euros, 13,900 euros and 30 thousand euros in all three bands. ”“ Our perspective on the accounts is solid with respect to the forecasts for this year and next: we are in a position to face all scenarios, ”Gualtieri assured.
The Ristori decree assigns “2.4 billion for 460 thousand subjects,” adds the Minister of Economic Development Stefano Patuanelli. “For completely closed sectors such as gyms, swimming pools, theaters, cinemas, the amount is doubled with respect to that assigned with the relaunch decree. Many restaurants open only at night, they lose much more than half of their income: even for these, after comparing with the categories, we have decided to apply the coefficient of 200%. 150% will go to bars, patisseries, ice cream parlors ”.
Snacks up to 200% of what has already been obtained
The heart of the measure concerns, as mentioned, the refreshment for the activities affected by the new dpcm. Compensations that will be parameterized to the amount collected already in spring after the first confinement but which, the text clarifies, may in no case exceed 150 thousand euros.
