As learned, the prime minister has signed the new Dpcm on restrictive anti-Covid measures. The text will be published in the Gazzetta in the next few hours. The meeting between Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte, the heads of the majority delegation, the Minister of Regional Affairs Francesco Boccia and the Under-Secretary of the Presidency of Prime Minister Riccardo Fraccaro has ended. The structure of the Dpcm “remains the same,” underline qualified government sources. Therefore, the differentiated regime continues to exist that divides Italy into three sections of contagion risk according to the 21 parameters listed in the text. Among the few changes made are those of the hairdresser: they also remain open in the areas that are framed in scenario 4, despite what was foreseen in the afternoon draft. “It was an intense day of work with the Regions and local Authorities characterized by continuous dialogue and loyal collaboration. The contributions received from the Regions and Local Authorities are absolutely constructive. The government has prepared and transmitted clear indications of national measures and of potential restrictions to be implemented, automatically, in the territories considered to be in the most critical health conditions. As well as all the refreshments for the affected activities will be automatic and timely. Once again we have worked hand in hand for a shared action with the territories with a common goal: to always protect health and strengthen health networks to contain the spread of the virus as much as possible ”. This was stated by the Regional Minister for the Autonomous Communities, Francesco Boccia, at the end of the long confrontation that has taken place in these days of preparing the text of the new Dpcm.
The provisions of the new decree apply from Thursday, November 5 to December 3, 2020, according to the draft of the Dpcm.
The government is examining the draft with the Regions that, among the observations made, are requesting homogeneous measures throughout the national territory. There is also a demand that epidemiological risk assessment be done in collaboration with regional departments. And then a decree is requested with compensation for the economic categories that will be presented together with the Dpcm, parental leave and conciliation and again tax exemption 2020-21 for all economic activities subject to closure measures.
“The provisions that squeeze and undermine the role and tasks of the Autonomous Regions and Provinces, placing each election and decision on the basis of the assessments made by the technical bodies by the Government, arouse strong perplexity and concern,” it reads in the letter sent by the president of the Conference of Autonomous Regions and Provinces, Stefano bonaccini, to Prime Minister Conte and Ministers Speranza and Boccia after the discussion on the scheme of the new Dpcm. According to the Regions, it is “essential to establish a cross-examination to examine the data with the prevention departments of the regional health services before the adoption of the lists” of risk areas.
The governor of Piedmont Alberto Cirio also asked “that the aid stations have certain credits and delivery times.” “I will present – adds the governor – a bill that imposes extraordinary taxes on international online sales platforms Throughout the duration of the new government measures, it is expected to allocate all of the income to small neighborhood businesses. ”
The attempt being made is not to paralyze the country: it will not be a rigid confinement, but similar to the German model, “a light confinement,” said the Undersecretary of Health, Sandra Zampa.
Here are the new measurements, according to the draft Dpcm
Curfew from 10pm – “From 10 pm to 5 am, only trips motivated by proven work needs, situations of need or health reasons are allowed. In any case, all natural persons are strongly recommended, throughout the day, not to travel in public or private means of transport, except for reasons of work, study, health, situations of need or to carry out activities or use non-suspended services “. This is what we read in a first draft, still provisional, of the Dpcm.
Stop traveling to risk areas – In high-risk areas that fall within scenarios 3 and 4 indicated in the ISS document – those characterized by a high-severity scenario and those in which there are situations of maximum severity – “any movement within and outside the territories” . It can affect “Whole regions or parts of them”. The difference between the areas that fall in scenario 3 and those that fall in scenario 4 is that in the latter, movements “within the same territories” are also prohibited, therefore, at the municipal and provincial level.
Stores are also closed in high-risk areas. – Also stop the activities of stores and markets in the regions, provinces and municipalities of maximum risk. The draft of the Dpcm of article 1 ter provides for this. “Retail commercial activities are suspended, with the exception of the sale of food.” The measure also stops markets, all bar and restaurant activities (except home delivery and take-out allowed until 10pm) and sports activities. On the other hand, motor activity “in the vicinity of the home” and with the obligation to wear a mask, and sports activity “exclusively outdoors and individually” are still allowed. For the high risk areas, therefore, in the orange areas, the shops remain open but the bars and restaurants close. Also limited in these areas is “any movement by means of public and private transport in a municipality other than that of residence” except for work, study, health and needs reasons.
The draft of the new Dpcm foresees that on board the public means of local transport and for regional rail transport, “a load factor not exceeding 50 percent” is allowed; this with the exclusion, however, of “dedicated school transportation”.
Smart work at the highest possible level, both in the public administration and in the private sector, and differentiated entries of personnel. In particular, public administrations (except health personnel and those involved in the emergency) must guarantee “the highest possible percentages of agile work, compatible with the organizational potential and with the quality and efficiency of the service provided” and “with the established procedures by one or more decrees of the Minister of Public Function “. It will be the responsibility of each manager to ensure the highest level of smart work. The draft Dpcm also contains the “strong recommendation” for private employers to use agile work mode.
Mandatory mask in primary and secondary school. – The mask will be mandatory in school for elementary and middle school children, even when they are sitting at the desk. “The didactic and educational activity for the first cycle of education and for educational services for children continues to develop in the presence – says the text – with the mandatory use of respiratory protection devices except for children under six years of age and for those with pathologies or disabilities incompatible with the use of the mask “.
Cruise stop – In order to counteract the spread of the coronavirus, the project provides for the stoppage of cruise services of Italian-flagged passenger ships. The provision is without prejudice to ongoing cruises until November 8. Foreign-flagged ships employed in cruise services can also enter Italian ports exclusively for the purpose of “idle” parking.
There are no contests except for health personnel – The “suspension of pre-selection and written tests of public and private competitions and qualification for the exercise of professions is foreseen, with the exception of the cases in which the evaluation of the candidates is carried out exclusively on a curricular basis. or in telematics or in which the commission considers to correct the written tests with remote connection, as well as to exclude competitions for health personnel, including, where appropriate, state exams and qualification for the exercise of the profession of surgeon. and those of civil protection personnel “. The cessation of the competitions had been foreseen by the government in a first draft of the Dpcm of 24/10 except to delete the paragraph later, at the request of the Regions.
The use of changing rooms is prohibited in sports clubs – The draft of the new Dpcm does not close sports clubs in national territories not subject to major restrictions (such as red zones) but prohibits the use of changing rooms. Article 1, paragraph f, recalls that “the activities of gyms, swimming pools, swimming pools, wellness centers, spas are suspended, except for the provision of services included in the essential levels of assistance, as well as cultural centers, social centers and centers recreational “. “Without prejudice to the suspension of swimming pool and gym activities, basic sports and physical activity in general carried out outdoors in public and private sports centers and clubs, are allowed in compliance with the rules of social distancing and without any meeting, in accordance with the guidelines issued by the Office of Sport, after consulting the Italian Sports Medical Federation, with the prescription that the use of changing rooms within said clubs is prohibited “.
In the red zones, the draft of the Dpcm foresees the suspension of sports activities, including those of sports centers and clubs, even if they are carried out outdoors. It is only allowed “to carry out motor activities individually in the vicinity of the house, provided that in any case the distance of at least one meter from any other person is respected and with the obligation” to wear masks. It is also possible to carry out “sports activities exclusively outdoors and individually”.
President Vda: the government has listened little to the regions – “The Government has listened little to the Regions, from soft drinks to getting parental leave. The draft of the Dpcm clearly specifies the prohibitions but little the measures in favor of the citizenship ”. This was stated by the president of the Valle d’Aosta Region, Erik Lavevaz. As for the new possible restrictive measures in the Alpine region, at risk of becoming a ‘red zone’, Lavevaz admitted that “the curfew already adopted will not be enough.”
