Veneto “closes” the municipalities – Meanwhile, Veneto, besieged by contagions, launches a squeeze: from December 19, until January 6, it will be prohibited to leave the municipality of residence after 2:00 p.m. President Luca Zaia’s decision anticipates the restrictions that come for vacations throughout the national territory, which divided the ministers and the majority forces.

Movements – It continues to address the exceptions to the travel ban, in particular to allow grandparents or in any case non-living relatives (no more than two) to join family members for dinner. However, the weekend of the dreaded exodus looms, with already exhausted trains in particular heading south, before the deadline Dec. 21 for cross-region travel, which is also the last free shopping weekend before the squeeze.

More controls – Lines and gatherings are still considered the number one danger due to the possible increase in infections, which is why the Interior Ministry has ordered more controls at stations and airports and at venues in nightlife areas. The line was decided in the Public Order and Security Committee chaired by Minister Luciana Lamorgese. The deployment of at least 70 thousand police units is already planned, in the last days already more visible in the controls in the streets of the cities.

Boccia: “Christmas is riskier than Ferragosto” – The message that comes from the government is that of Francesco Boccia, champion of the penalty line. “Christmas is riskier than Ferragosto”, warns the Regional Minister of Territory, who has postponed the meeting with the Conference of Regions. “We will have to spend it each at home to protect the most fragile and elderly. Anyone who thinks of parties and dinners is very wrong. “

The Valle d’Aosta case – On the other hand, the Council of Ministers challenged the ordinance with which the Region of Valle de Aosta reopened bars and restaurants, despite the orange strip in which it is still located. The regional TAR, to which the government has requested both the suspension and the annulment of the provision, must rule on the appeal.

The school chapter – “It is a duty to reopen secondary schools,” says Education Minister Lucía Azzolina, who urges maximum caution during the holidays. “If it is going to be a good Christmas”, respecting the regulations, confirms the commissioner Domenico Arcuri, “the students will return to class on January 7.”
