At the end of the minority Democratic Party prevents ripping on reforms and not leave the Commission Constitutional Affairs of the House against the advice of the speakers and the government amendment that provides for a prior opinion on the electoral law by the Court already in this legislature. So late in the evening comes the first yes to the reform of bicameralism and Title V of the Constitution. The Constitutional Affairs Committee of Deputies approved the text that will land to the House Tuesday. In the Commission’s reforms was “a climate of fair comparison,” says the minister for constitutional reforms Maria Elena Woods at the end of the work of the Committee. However, tensions remain high with the government so that Members of the minority of the Democratic Party (including Rosy Bindi, Alfredo D’Attorre, Gianni Cuperlo, Joseph Lauricella and Rober ta Agostini) had even asked to be replaced in the Commission. But in the end you are “limited” to not participate in the vote, remaining in the House although in dissent but not wanting to send “under” the government as happened three days ago. While the opposition, M5S, League and Sel have abandoned the work of the Constitutional Affairs Committee of the House engaged in the vote on the amendments on reforms.

life senators and minority pd
The question for Members concerned on the one hand the revival of normal (Wednesday rejected an amendment) that allows the President the Republic to appoint senators of the new Senate that will be released by the reform. To avoid new snags, the deputies of the minority Democratic Party are so returned to committee but did not vote the amendment, which was then approved, which reads: “The President of the Republic may nominate senators citizens who have their country for outstanding achievements in the social, scientific, artistic, literary. These senators remain in office for seven years and may be reappointed. ” Committee in support of the presidential nomination had intervened Maria Elena Boschi, Minister for Reforms, which had stated that the senators appointed by the president “represent excellence” and can bring “a contribution to informed choices.”
Examination of the Constitutional Court
Another point of disagreement was the Democratic Party deputies of the minority judgment estimate of constitutionality by the View on the new electoral law. So much so that a group of deputies of the minority has suggested (then partially retracted) to be represented in the Commission. “If there was a chance to get to a positive outcome, then we will evaluate the abandonment of the work of the Committee and asked to be replaced,” said Alfredo D’Attorre . “We reaffirm the fair and responsible attitude, witnessed by dozens of amendments that we have withdrawn these days and respected by the commitment not to touch the founding pillars of the reforms, and to enable their approval by the committee on time.” “If there are no guarantees to change the quorum for the election of the head of state and the certainty that the electoral law is submitted in advance to the scrutiny of the Cons titutional Court, I would find it impossible to complete my task and I will have to ask the president of the group to replace me, “added Barbara Pollastrini. Stressed the concept Rosi Bindi: “If there say yes to the amendment introducing the preventive judgment of the Constitutional Court on the electoral law, then I’m leaving with indignation.”
