The aid decree quater , which exploits the entire treasury of 9.1 billion certified by Nadef, confirms a series of measures already announced in some way on the high-energy front, but also some last-minute extras.
The LIVE press conference of Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni:
COMPANIES - Among the measures, the legislative decree extends first of all, until the end of the year, the tax credits for companies (with increased rates to 40% for energy-intensive and gas-intensive companies and to 30% for small companies that use energy with power starting from 4.5 kW) and the cut in petrol excise duties (it would have expired on 18 November, it is moved to 31 December): two measures that together absorb approximately 4.4 billion. To help companies cope with the expensive bills, there is also the possibility of requesting payment in installments : the measure, financed through a Mef fund that goes from 2 to 5 billion, is intended for "companies resident in Italy" and grants the possibility of paying in installments (with a maximum of 36 monthly installments) the sums exceeding the average amount accounted for throughout 2021 for consumptions made from 1 October 2022 to 31 March 2023 and invoiced by 30 September 2023; the installment expires in the event of non-fulfillment of two installments, even if not consecutive, and it is possible to obtain a guarantee from Sace (provided that the company has not approved the distribution of dividends or the repurchase of shares).
The threshold of tax-free bonuses that companies will be able to grant to employees as a "fringe benefit" to pay bills is also raised from 600 to 3 thousand euros.
CASH CAP - The already announced increase in the cash ceiling also arrives, which from 2023 goes from the current threshold of 2 thousand euros to 5 thousand (from January it would have been reduced to one thousand euros). 80 million are also allocated for 2023 to help traders obliged to electronically transmit the fees to the Revenue Agency: support that will come as a tax credit at 100% of the expenditure incurred and up to 50 euros for each electronic cash register purchased.
There is also the Imu exemption (the second installment, provided that the owners are also the managers) for the properties in the entertainment sector (cinemas, theaters, concert halls) and the exemption from stamp duty for the request for contributions , aid or subsidies for populations affected by disasters.
GAS AND DRILLS - And if the Energy Services Operator (Gse) will have more time to buy, store and resell gas at controlled prices to contribute to the security of supplies (the deadline of December 31 is postponed to March 31, while time is given until to 15 April to repay the State of the loan to compensate for purchases up to 4 billion), on the gas front the government is also going ahead on the topic of drills with the aim of increasing production: ok to the increase in quantities extracted from existing crops in sea areas and the authorization of new concessions between 9 and 12 miles.
" The gas price protection regime for domestic users has been extended to 10 January ".
SUPERBONUS - Finally, the revision of the Superbonus arrives: the rule does not solve the problem of problem loans but in 2023 it lowers the percentage of the discount from 110% to 90% . The cut applies to both condominiums and villas, which would otherwise have been completely excluded from the bonus, but as long as they are the main residence and as long as the owner has an income of less than 15,000 euros (variable threshold based on the family quotient). However, for those who have already started the work by completing 30% by September of this year, the bonus remains super at 110% until March 31, 2023.
"On the Superbonus - said Meloni during the press conference - I mean that it was deservedly born as a measure to help the economy but the way it was created has created many problems. Those who said that you could renovate your condominiums for free remember that it cost to the state 60 billion , with a hole of 38, let's say that the concept of gratuity is bizarre ".
