the law on political parties, eliminated the norm “anti M5S” – BBC

the rapporteur to the law on parties implementation of Article 49 of the Constitution, Matthew Richetti (Pd), presented in the Commission for constitutional Affairs to a unified text Chamber of various bills, in which it is It eliminated the so-called ‘standard anti M5s “that excluded from the elections parties without the Statute, allowed by the pDL official of the Democratic party first signatory Lorenzo Guerini. The new flagship text instead of internal transparency mechanisms and under the financing side.

changes

The current legislation on parties, passed by the government Letta with the decree that cut funding, forcing parties and movements to have a statute and to enroll in a registry. But they were no sanctions for those who did not comply with this obligation, such as the Movimento 5 Stelle. The bill of Guerini rectify the matter by sanctioning the exclusion from the election parties or movements that do not have a statute, which has sparked protests by pentastellati. The text of Richetti, that within the Democratic Party is renziano, solves the issue by providing a dual track. In addition to the parties that have a status and are enrolled in the registry, and you will benefit of 2 per thousand, the movements will be limited – at election time – to present a “Disclosure Statement”, which indicates the following ” minimum elements “:” 1) the legal representative of the party or political group organized and registered office in the State; 2) the organs of the party or of the organized political group, its composition and their specific tasks; 3) the procedures for selecting candidates for the submission of lists. ” The exclusion from the elections will start only in case will not be presented this “disclosure statement”.

transparency

rules on the transparency of the internal life of parties and movements are then introduced. The parties entered in the Register shall have on its website a space in which they are published budgets, in addition to the Statute and internal organs. The changes, however, will have to publish ‘the procedures required for the approval of the acts covered by the party, movement or organized political group, and the number, the composition and powers of decision-making bodies, executive and control, of their mode election and the term of the related tasks, the methods of selection of candidates as well as the organ still seized of legal representation. ” Furthermore all members of political parties or movements have the right to know who the other members; the registrar will not be appropriate on-line, for privacy reasons, but will have to be consulted by members. In terms of funding from private, even here the guarantor of privacy posed a problem to the online publication of the donors. The Richetti text then provides traceability for all donations between 5,000 and 15,000 Euros, through a joint declaration of the donor and the party or movement that receives the money; more than 15,000 euro donation is published on line because, he explains Richetti, “the figure becomes significant and prevails the right to transparency than the confidentiality of the donor.” Tomorrow and the day after in committee will take place the debate on the text, then will set a deadline for amendments.
