Over 93 million euros. This is the amount of expenses incurred by the Regional Council administration for council indemnities, reimbursements and annuities, the most “heavy” items in the 2024 financial statement , approved today by the assembly and illustrated during the session by the senior councilor quaestor, Lorenzo Cozzolino (Oc).

In detail, allowances and reimbursements for last year amount to 78.5 million euros, while life annuities amount to 14.7 million, with a decrease of approximately 114 thousand euros compared to '23.

The verified revenues are instead equal to 98.6 million and the total expenses to 74.3 million . The available funds derive largely from the ordinary contribution to the operation - explained the police commissioner - equal to 76 million from the regional budget, and from 119 thousand euros of Agcom resources for delegated functions.

Still scrolling through the figures of the report, the actual collections have exceeded 92 million euros, while the active residues (credits to be collected) amount to 6.25 million.
