INTERVIEW ANGELINO ALFANO
Milan , December 31, 2014 – 8:53
ROME Minister Alfano, but Ncd has a candidate for the presidency of Republic?
“We – responds Angelino Alfano, Interior Minister and leader of the new center-right – we have neither names nor do veto. Italy needs a leadership that knows how to represent all delicate and perform the functions that the Constitution assigns. Remember, just as an example, that the head of state chairs the Higher Judicial Council, the Supreme Council of Defense, appoints ministers, promulgates laws, dissolve the Chambers, converses constantly with the government. This is enough to say that this is not a “job” for people outside the institutions. No need then to go in search of women and men, although the curriculum illustrious, have no confidence in the institutions, because in our Republic the President is not an honorary position. ”
By what method should be identified?
“Certainly not making an issue of the party. It is clear that the Democratic Party has a numerical strength in Parliament justifying legitimate aspirations, but I do not think at this time serve Spillino candidates with the party. ”
Are you saying that the next president of the Republic should not be the Democratic Party?
“The Democratic Party, for the election results that had, could not accept and even merit a veto. It is equally true, however, that the presidential candidate does not decide at the meeting of the Democratic Party congress. It will be necessary that there is a preventive work to identify a personality that can be voted on by the Democratic Party and the main forces of the center. ”
It has already spoken with the prime minister, Matteo Renzi?
“No. We have a new president in office and therefore is not the time. ”
And with Silvio Berlusconi? It is true that is seeking an agreement with the leader of Forza Italy on this game?
“There is no stage began research agreement, but I think that the natural forces of moderation and that are part of the EPP, the European People’s Party, should consult and seek a common path.”
Berlusconi has proposed a name, that of former president Minister Giuliano Amato. The would be fine?
“I repeat, I have no names to offer and do it now is to risk burning them. When the time comes, will need to open a consultation between the political forces to find a personality that does not have skeletons in the closet, which has institutional experience and possibly is not too much in later years, to give some coherence to the rejuvenation of the Republic which is triggered by the last government. ”
In the meantime, you will be dealing with the electoral law. It must be approved by January, says Renzi. Do you agree?
“We came into this government to accelerate change. We will not obstacles. As the Jobs Act, Ncd not brake, but rather calls for more than the Democratic Party can give. ”
Ncd asks, however, a safeguard clause so that the use of early voting can not take place before 2016. Before we approve the law, replica Renzi .
“We do not ask a safeguard clause, but of common sense. The electoral law that we are approving is true for a single room and so of course we have to find a time, until the middle of 2016, within which to approve the constitutional reform that clears the Senate, in 2015, and play in the spring of 2016 the referendum. Only then can use the new electoral law, provided that the objective is to get to the natural expiration of the legislature in 2018. If we were not able to make the constitutional reform or the citizens have rejected the referendum, then you can decide that the electoral law applies to both Houses.
This clause is common sense that we think should be included in the body of the electoral law that we are discussing. Then when you insert it would evaluate the premier with the parliamentary groups. I would not hang me on a date which could become subject of controversy and undermine relations of trust, while it is just to implement commitments made. ”
Minister, is in favor of extending the rules of the Jobs Act public workers?
“We hope that public and private work, for reasons of efficiency and equity, are approved. This also applies to apprenticeship, forward contracts, good industrial relations, which also means unlocking the turnover for the young. All this taking into account some specificities of the civil service and entry to the competition. The aim is also to ensure public employees a merit system, without giving the impression of punitive measures for all just because there are some who do craft loafers. ”
