Suitable areas, the exam begins: outside the building the protest of the committees, Forza Italia abandons the room

The Regional Council begins its examination of the Executive's bill on Suitable Areas . A controversial debut, with the mobilization of the people of Pratobello 24 and Forza Italia leaving the chamber in open controversy with the majority.

Outside the palace, the permanent picket of the demonstrators promoting the popular initiative law that has collected over 210 thousand signatures has resumed. " They will have to take responsibility for what they have decided to do, they have chosen to ignore over 210 thousand Sardinians ," the demonstrators thunder.

As is known, in fact, the majority has set aside the Pratobello for now, giving priority to the examination of the text approved by the Todde Council.

But the committees, supported by the opposition, believe that the definition of suitable areas will not stem the invasion while Pratobello, focusing on the primary competence of the Region on Urban Planning, would stem it.

Voices from the classroom

- The law on suitable areas is «the result of months of work», underlines Roberto Li Gioi , president of the Land Government Commission, while the president of the Industry Commission Antonio Solinas does not exclude integrations of the text with parts of Pratobello .

– Opening the proceedings, the president of the Sardinian Assembly Piero Comandini, announced two warnings sent to the Executive and Council by multinational energy companies so that the Executive's bill is not discussed . «Warnings that I strongly reject, no one should dare to threaten our autonomy», said Comandini.

- Forza Italia instead decided to abandon the chamber : «We distance ourselves from the Aree Idee bill, for us the only law is the Pratobello », declared the Forza Italia group leader Angelo Cocciu . «We – he added – are on the side of the Sardinians and we will not present amendments, because it would somehow make us complicit in this devastating law».
