The news of the salary more than double Pasquale Tridico it provoked the inevitable reaction from the world of politics. All have pointed the finger at or distanced themselves from the INPS president, in the past they have already ended up in the center of numerous storms. There are those who have invoked his resignation, those who have ordered him to apologize to the Italians who are still waiting for the redundancy fund to the workers who have been waiting for it for months and who – in the case of Luigi Di Maio, for example – will ask for clarifications .
The story created a crawl space not only among the ranks of the opposition but also within the 5 Star Movement. Many grillini do not understand how it was possible that the president of the INPS decided to increase it salary in a period of full economic emergency. In any case, it revealed Republic, behind the increase in Tridico’s salary there would be nothing less than Luigi di maio, when the current Minister of Foreign Affairs assumed the role of Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Labor within the yellow-green government.
Yellow-green arrangement
Let’s rewind the tape. Law 26 of 2019, the law that establishes the Citizens’ Income and the 100 Quota, provided that the salaries of the aforementioned senior management be set with a specific decree of the Ministry of Labor. And there would be a dated note June 12, 2019 of the then owner of Di Maio, Vito Cozzoli, to prove it.
A noteBeware, it would even contain the salary figures: 150 thousand euros for the president, 100 thousand for the vice president and 23 thousand for the three directors of the two boards of directors (of INPS and Inail) yet to be named. The note was addressed to the General Directorate of Social Security Policies of the Ministry of Labor and, for information, also to the Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte, the then Minister of Finance, Giovanni Tria, and the State Accountant, Biagio Mazzotta.
They were asked a “definitive assessment of the congruence of the quantities“prepare”the decree of the Ministry of Labor“, with the final ratification of the indicated figures. Well, repeats Rep, this note would have been the result of an exhausting agreement reached between Di Maio and Salvini to split Inps and Inail.
Apparently, therefore, Conte would have been informed of everything. However, speaking at the Trento Economics Festival, Conte has denied to know the history. “I was not personally informed of this matter. I requested investigations because I would like to investigate the matter further. Let me dig deeper and then I’ll do an evaluation. Let me see it and eventually I will speak“declared the premier.
Gualtieri’s irritation
However, Di Maio’s decree did not see the light, thanks to the fall of the Conte 1 government. Thus we come to the decree signed last August 7 by the Minister of Labor, Nunzia catalfo, and by the Minister of Economy, Roberto Gualtieri (among the most irritated by history). Catalfo’s chief of staff would have confirmed the note of December 5 by slightly adjusting the values of the vice president’s salaries: 40 thousand euros plus another 60 thousand in case of powers of attorney.
We remind you that, after a controversial morning, yesterday afternoon, Saturday, September 26, the INPS Human Resources Directorate came out, reiterating in an official note that it had not paid any pending compensation to President Tridico and that “In any case, the Institute’s Offices have never provided for the payment of an overdue remuneration to the President for the period from May 2019 to April 15, 2020.“In short, there is no retroactive effect on the increase in Pasquale Tridico’s salary, simply more than double in total lockdown.
