"Superbonus, among the biggest scams ever seen", the government studies the corrective measures
Draghi: "If we are in this situation, it is because a system was built that provided for very few controls"
Around the Superbonus and other building bonuses, "one of the biggest scams the Republic has ever seen" has been organized.
The Minister of Economy, Daniele Franco, does not mince words to define the offenses that emerged from the controls of the Revenue Agency and the Guardia di Finanza, returning to rattle off the data that emerged in recent days: fraud for 4.4 billion and seizures for € 2.3 billion.
Corrections are thus arriving, a less strict limitation of the transfers accompanied by a possible tracking.
The system provided for "very few checks", explained the premier, Mario Draghi, who attacked: "Those who thunder the most about the Superbonus today, who say that these frauds do not count, that we must go on anyway ... These are some of those who wrote the law and allowed work to be done without controls ".
In fact, the rejoinders of the 5 Star Movement arrived immediately. Riccardo Fraccaro, who is one of the "pope" of the rules, declared that the premier "is wrong, because he makes a bundle of all the grass by confusing the Superbonus with the other bonuses." The M5S also asks the minister to clarify and report to Parliament.
In reality, Franco, in the long speech, recalled the stakes already introduced on the Superbonus which made it possible to limit the damage: "If you look at the data - he said - they concern relatively little 110%, for which there was already the sworn statement, it's more about the other bonuses ".
The government is ready to intervene and correct what the parties have not accepted, namely the limitation of the assignment of credit to a single and single operation.
It will do so not by immediate decree, but, following the normal parliamentary procedure of the Sostegni-ter decree , where the squeeze has been inserted: in order to return to the multiple assignment, it will therefore be necessary to wait at least a month and a half, at least until the Chamber and Senate will not have approved the conversion law definitively.
The intervention hypotheses are essentially two. Franco defined them as "refinements": the first could be the "tracking" of each activity, attributing a code to each operation, the second could instead consist in the return to multiple assignments, but at most to two or three, and always to internal banking system.
In the meantime, the problems denounced so far by businesses, banks and much of the political world, namely the blocking of activities, however, risk not being resolved.
