the COVID-19-19 also affects the government and the majority. Not with new infections, but as a consequence of the fiduciary quarantine imposed on 41 deputies after Ricardo Merlo and Beatrice Lorenzin tested positive for the virus on Monday. And for the decision of the right center to leave the classroom Montecitorio. Result: no quorum and no vote by the House on the resolution in favor of the extension of the state of emergency until January 31. Conclusion: the Council of Ministers was postponed from last night until today. IS Dpcm September has already expired and will be renewed after the deadline. After an initial slip, Giuseppe Conte and the Minister of Health, Roberto Speranza, decided to take advantage of the parliamentary slip to get one more week of time. Seven very useful days to evaluate the evolution of the epidemic and decide on new measures.
New Dpcm, fines of up to 1000 euros for those who do not wear a mask. But on the hypothesis I mean
I MUST STEP
The scheme is as follows: this morning “bridge” decree to avoid regulatory loopholes (today the Dpcm of September 7 expires), with the obligation of exterior masks inside and the extension of the state of emergency. Then in a week the new Dpcm. Perhaps with further hardening, if the situation worsens. Because, as Minister Speranza said in Parliament, “Italy is better for now” than other European countries “, but we should not have any illusions imagining ourselves outside of it: there has been a phase of objective worsening for nine weeks and this time the growth of infections are widespread, it affects all Regions. ”Therefore,” we must continue in the line of prudence and we must raise the level of guardianship. “
Chaos in the House broke out at lunchtime, just as the majority was called to pass the resolution with communications from Speranza. At the time of the vote, with the center-right deputies out of the House to put the red-yellows in trouble, the current president Ettore Rosato could not help but certify the lack of a quorum: 80 absent. And he set another vote an hour later.
Covid, Speranza: “In Italy a state of emergency has been requested 154 times since 2004. An unprecedented pandemic event”
The center right rejoiced. He asked Conte to come “to report immediately.” Matteo Salvini thundered: “You no longer have the numbers, most are disorderly, quarrelsome and absent even when it comes to Covid.” Giorgia Meloni added: “Are you devastated, you can’t even guarantee a quorum and you have to manage the increase in infections and the resources of the Recovery Fund ?!”
The red-yellows weren’t looking. With Emanuele Fiano and Davide Crippa they recognized that the lack of a quorum is “a political fact”, but they pointed a finger at the absences of … Covid: “Most of them are there, and if the quarantined companions had been considered on mission – as expressly requested and widely discussed by the Board for the regulation last March – there would also be a quorum. At a delicate moment such as the one the country is going through, it is serious that some oppositions do not miss the opportunity to exploit a situation closely linked to the pandemic ‘.
Covid, Massimo Giannini positive: “Beware, the virus exists: we take all precautions”
THE NUMBERS
Fiano then went to do the math. And he produced the numbers: «We have 21 people who are prevented by law from participating in the session because in quarantine, the M5S group is 14, plus 5 Italia alive, 1 Leu. In total 41, if not 45 ”, including those that were tamponed. Response from Francesco Lollobrigida from FdI: “The Covid has nothing to do with it, the majority in a measure as important as the extension of the emergency cannot guarantee assistance”. An hour later, the same script. Same absences and a new absence by 8 votes, with the center-right out of the chamber, out of the quorum. Conclusion: Rosato postponed the new vote at 10 this morning. This change also brought about the postponement of the Council of Ministers and the State-Regions conference on the new Dpcm. Then Fiano, Crippa and Federico Fornaro di Leu asked for an urgent call for the group leaders’ meeting.
“If I can keep the mask, you can too”: in the House the example of Deputy Noja
Here there was a new confrontation: the majority, worried that due to the fiduciary quarantine there could be no votes to approve the Update of the Def (an absolute majority is required), requested the vote from a distance or that those who are absent by It is considered that Covid has a mission. And to think that shortly before Sergio Mattarella had launched an appeal: “A common effort and a convergent commitment on the part of institutions, companies and all social components is necessary” to confront Covid and allow the country to restart. The evening dance went to the Board for regulation. The ruling, after a heated discussion: Deputies in quarantine for whom the authority has limited circulation, will henceforth be automatically considered on mission. And therefore, they will not be counted for the quorum.
