“The government gives clear answers on skis”

Fontana spoke after the reopening of the ski slopes. “I believe – he said – that also in this case it will be necessary to obtain a response from the Government, both with regard to the application of the guidelines and, in the event that it believes that this is not possible, at least a clarification on when it will be possible. Reopening ski resorts and hotels is a complex thing, “added Fontana,” that requires preparation. Therefore, there must be clarity on this issue. ” As for a collective decision at the European level, “I think it would be a good thing. We, as Lombardy, are prepared, we have prepared the guidelines, we are in the same conditions as Austria. Now it is an assessment that the Government must make,” he reiterated Fontana. “Even at the beginning of the second wave with Minister Speranza I was hoping that there could be a European intervention, because it is absurd that there are countries due to closure. Losing competitiveness with respect to another, even if the health conditions are the same. “, explained Fontana.” The question – he continued – also arose because the government measures included the development of guidelines for the reopening of ski resorts, hence the expectation that we have, but especially the people who work in the They are expectations – he concluded – that are very important because they refer to a sector that moves a large part of the economy. “
