Cagliari, employees of local authorities take to the streets: «There is no staff, an alarming situation»

Around two thousand employees of Local Authorities have arrived from all over Sardinia in Cagliari to focus on the activation of the Single Bargaining Section of the Region and Local Authorities already established by Article 12 of the 2006 regional law.

Accompanying the procession towards Piazza Moby Prince, where the speeches will alternate, will be around thirty mayors with the tricolor sash of as many Sardinian municipalities. And the centre-left candidates for the presidency of the region, Alessandra Todde and Renato Soru. " The situation of local authorities is alarming due to the lack of staff which affects the provision of services to citizens and businesses", say the protesters. «The sectors are made up of homogeneous or similar sectors of the public administration where the negotiations that determine the legal and economic conditions of the workers take place».

Only two of the regions in Italy do not have Local Authorities in the same sector: Sicily and Sardinia, although the Municipalities and Provinces largely carry out responsibilities devolved from the Region.
