«President, out of the respect I have for the entire city council, I expect from you an account of the city councils and commissions missed due to lack of a quorum . A report on the absences and presences of individual city councillors, because your press conference seems strange to me as I don't see all these sessions being deserted due to lack of numbers ." In the hall of the Porto Torres city council, the majority representative of the Democratic Party, Antonello Cabitta , expresses his disappointment at the intervention of the president of the council Franco Satta made in the press on the absenteeism of the city councilors.
Friction within the majority itself and discontent on the part of minority councilors who believe the commissions "conceived as press conferences rather than meetings to offer a contribution to the decisions of the majority", claims Michele Bassu. «At this point I also ask that a report be provided on the reimbursements granted to our city councilors , just so that citizens know that it is not a witch hunt, but because each of us has the responsibility to be present», he adds Cabitta.
«I would add that although the majority has the duty to guarantee a quorum, it is also true that the opposition commissioners can, if they want, make contributions to the commissions . So I ask that the certificates produced in these three years be provided to understand where we can remedy the situation." For the Prime Minister Satta «I decided to inform the press about the impartial role that I play, making a reminder to the councilors so that those who are absent take on their responsibility towards those who elected them. Because there are councilors who leave before waiting for the response to their interventions, therefore I will work to present the data of the councilors absent and present in these three years".
