Biella, Azzolina: “We are thinking of challenging Cirio’s ordinance on fever at school”
So yesterday the governor seemed convinced that he had avoided the government’s measure: “The minister understood what it means to be bogia ben,” he said, commenting on the silence of the ministries, referring to the Piedmontese characteristic of “not giving in to his own.” . positions, do not give up. “Today, however, the provision has arrived that questions the legitimacy of the order signed last Thursday.
The lawyers who drew up the government’s appeal, Gianna Galluzzo, Sergio Fiorentino and Carla Colelli, request the suspension of the order and question its legitimacy, because in this matter the state jurisdiction is preponderant over that of the Regions. Not only that: in the text of the appeal, it returns several times to the fact that the obligation to measure at school and not only for families, would not guarantee, according to state attorneys, greater caution but, on the contrary, would increase the possibility of circulation of the virus already on the way between home and school.
“The recommendation contained in the ordinance of the Piedmont Region is such that it causes an unjustifiable delay in the measurement of the body temperature of children and students, which in fact should only take place at the end of the home-school path,” reads the appeal . The solution adapted by Piedmont, in short, “far from being more protective of the health of students and their families, should be inhibited, since it is likely to favor the spread of the virus.”
Piedmont, the Miur against Cirio on the measurement of fever in schools
In the afternoon, Piedmontese Governor Alberto Cirio responded, announcing that he will not renounce the provision: “We will strongly defend the ordinance because we are convinced that it is useful and necessary, in addition to that it fully falls within the competence of the Region, among which is to protect the health of its citizens. Furthermore, Piedmont schools are already applying the ordinance without any particular difficulty, as the beginning of the school year shows. “
The Piedmont Region, Cirio adds, has instructed Professor Guido Barosio to represent it before the TAR “and wrote to the Regional Administrative Court asking to be able to explain the reasons for an ordinance whose sole purpose is to protect the health of students, the school staff and families. “
The ordinance, for the president of Piedmont, “integrates the rules established by the government for families to measure fever, introducing an additional control mechanism to ensure that this state obligation is respected. In this way, the level of security for the citizens and no changes are introduced with respect to the provisions of the State, but only a control mechanism of what the State has established by law “
Cirio wishes to add, however, that “as long as the TAR has not ruled on the suspension, the regional ordinance will remain in force.”

“With great disregard for the ridiculous and senseless of risk, the minister in charge of rolling banks is harassed against one of the few common sense measures taken in the face of this tormented resumption of the school year.” Alberto Preioni and the councilors of the regional group Lega Salvini Piemonte thus stigmatize Minister Azzolina’s decision to challenge President Cirio’s order on the obligation to measure fever in schools.
“While in Piedmont -adds the Northern League- we fully protect the health of our children, introducing an obligation for schools that has already been in force for months in public offices and private companies, Lucia Azzolina embarks on another rearguard battle of this government against our autonomic prerogatives. This time we are not talking about a simple law, but about a terrible health emergency like Covid: if after this crazy decision we will see an increase in infections in Piedmont classrooms, we will know who to blame. But if the minister accepts it: we will not take a step backwards, especially when it is necessary to guarantee public health. We have been a liar up to now and we will remain so even in the most suitable places, ready to fight the interference of Conte and his acolytes. “
The government entrusted responsibility for the survey to individual families, but Piedmont had introduced a verification obligation for schools. In particular, the Region recommended that all institutions measure the temperature of students before entering school. If the institution, for objective and proven reasons, is not in a position to do so, it should have provided a daily verification mechanism (through a self-certification that could be provided in the electronic registry, agenda or in a specific form) to verify that the temperature had actually been measured by the family. In the case of a student without such self-certification, the Piedmont region ordinance required the school to measure fever before allowing him to enter the classroom.
