The Regional Anti-Corruption Authority's decision nullifying Salvatore Piras 's appointment as sole director of Forestas remains in effect.

The Regional Administrative Court (TAR) did not grant the stay in the proceedings initiated based on an appeal filed by Piras himself, who consulted lawyers Mauro Barberio and Stefano Porcu to challenge the decision issued late last month ( DECISION HERE ). In short, the Office of the Head of Corruption Prevention and Transparency declared the appointment null and void because, in the year prior to taking office, the sole director had received funds from the Region, through Ares, in his capacity as director of a private company operating in the health and social care sector, Gesù Nazareno. This financial relationship constitutes grounds for disqualification from holding public office. Furthermore, the Anti-Corruption Authority has initiated proceedings to determine any liability on the part of the Regional President and the councilors who participated in the Board of Directors that approved the appointment.

Piras challenged the decision, the Region did not appear in court (who would have defended the legal office, the region that decided on the appointment or the region that declared it null and void?), and now the request for a stay has been rejected.

The decree by Giulia Ferrari, President of the First Section of the Regional Administrative Court (TAR), states: "Considering that the appellant himself, in outlining the damages justifying the request for a single-judge suspension of the contested measures, states that 'it is extremely probable that the Administration will find a different organizational solution, even a commissioner-based one, to fill the revoked position,' with the consequence that the alleged damages do not even have the character of certainty," the request for granting the single-judge measures is rejected. The hearing on the merits is scheduled for July 15th.
