“There is no sight or increases taxation or cut to the services that citizens receive. Need to weight loss a bit ‘for the public machine, but if the sacrifices makes them politics for me is not a problem. If jump seats in the investee that I consider it a good for the citizens, not a sacrifice. ” So Matteo Renzi , following the Council of Ministers, presented the guidelines of the Document economics and finance , the main instrument of economic and financial planning of the country, on which will build the next Stability Law . The text, in which GDP growth for this year is estimated “conservatively” in a + 0.7% expected by the effort of spending review which now work the new Commissioners Yoram Gutgeld and Roberto Perotti derive at least 10 billion euro, “but there is room to cut off 20″.

The Prime Minister assured that the infamous safeguard clauses, those that next year could have determined an increase of ‘ Iva and Excise for nearly 17 billion, “will obsolete . We disabled from those 3 billion that had provided the previous governments ( the executive Letta, ed ). ” But even those included in the maneuver signed by himself, the one for 2015. This Renzi has failed. On the other hand claimed that “overall, in 2015, we have reduced taxes for 18 billion euro: 10 by 80 by 8 euro and measures at work. And now we have to add us also 3 billion safeguard clauses. Then we can do more, reduce them. If we are in the conditions will reduce in 2016. But no one say that increase. ” Ready confirmation of the Minister of Economy Pier Carlo Padoan , who explained that the safeguard clauses will be defused in part by the spending review, in part – hopefully good – “automatically thanks to the benefits of growth” and expenditure on interest on public debt lower than expected. The President of the Council finally obliged to reiterate once again that the income tax bonus is considered for accounting more spending and not a tax cut, which “gives the trumpets of those who say that there is a tax increase, “the usual” owls “,” but who is at home knows that it is not so, the citizens do not know that well. ” To say otherwise, he added, “is a contradiction to the citizens.”

The final go-ahead Friday. From concept emerge 10 billion spending review – Beyond the usual announcements and optimism fer, and waiting to read in detail the contents of the document that will get the final go-ahead Friday , the drafts circulated in recent days give a good idea of ​​how the government expects to flush out the fateful 16.8 billion needed to prevent snap increases automatic Iva and Excise and retain a margin to be used if necessary to reduce the tax burden: a conjunction of public spending cuts, savings on interest paid to finance the debt and the public use of the new criteria flexibility Europeans. Renzi and Padoan will use first scissors deductions , deductions and exemptions tax with the aim of bringing in cash at least 1.5 billion. Equally must come from a reduction of incentives to businesses. Two billion save are then expected to be a rationalization of buy of goods and services: the executive returns to the charge on the central purchasing with the intention to bring them in from 32 thousand 35. Regions and healthcare companies will be called upon to adapt to the standard costs , as municipalities are already beginning to do. And local authorities – already on the barricades – you will reduce transfers and subsidies for the public transport and to subsidiaries that manage the garbage collection . The other fundamental chapter consists of the measures contained in the draft law of Reform of Public Administration : elimination of Forest to the reorganization of Prefectures and other peripheral structures of the state. Finally is close to views on the pensions of Disability , which in some provinces have reached pathological levels both in number and overall spending.

Down the tax cuts. Or increase taxes – Since the deck is short, to avert the risk of a tax increase to the fact the executive raises in disguised form. Meaning that about 1.5 billion savings will come from the reduction of so-called tax expenditures , ie between 720 discounts and benefits of various kinds that today go to reduce the yield Total . According to the survey done in 2011 by a working group chaired by the Economy Undersecretary Vieri Ceriani , every year for the state resulting in a loss of revenue amounting to 253 billion euro. Now the government wants to rationalize deleting those unjustified or exceeded. A reorganization expected already in tax delegation that, beyond the opportunity, will weigh directly on people’s pockets. Although it will be subject to the income tax deductions for employment and retirement or dependents.

Less incentives for business – The Def intervenes Also, in a full-bodied, incentives to businesses. A jungle: according to the report of the working group on the subject coordinated by Carlo Cottarelli “support granted”, including national and regional, are 845, for a total outlay that according to the latest survey (2012) is about 3.6 billion. But the economist Francesco Giavazzi , the ad hoc report developed in 2012 for the Monti government, showed that if one includes incentives to agriculture and trade, the tax credits, the employment bonus and a long list of sectoral aid saving potential rises to 10 billion. Renzi and Padoan aim to cut off, according to the draft, about 1.6.

Take part again in the viewfinder. From the local public transport – In the beginning was Cottarelli , convinced that you could safely reduce by 8 thousand in 1000 to save 2-3 billion each regime. After the departure of the Commissioner, the Stability Law has established that local authorities and governing bodies of all the administrations which owns subsidiaries were to be submitted by 31 March, a rationalization plan. For now we do not know how many have done so (note that they were not provided for penalties for defaulting). Meanwhile the government back to the office stating that in the light of those plans will be put in the pipeline legislative interventions aimed to reduce the number of companies. The operation, however, is intertwined with the parliamentary scrutiny of the Bill to reform the Pa, where standards were embedded in the commissioner of the subsidiaries in red and poles that should facilitate the rationalization of the system. First, it is necessary that the delegation will become law and only after the government will put it into practice with the decrees. Priorities for action, according to drafts of Def, are those local public transport and management of the waste cycle. On the first front is expected for months now a bill ad hoc, which according to the advances will set the standard costs of the service, will introduce penalties for the regions that do not make race and encourage the ticketing mail to reduce the phenomenon of the “Portuguese”.
