Seaside, there is the agreement. But the question of compensation is postponed to the decrees

After agitated days and several of the prime minister Mario Draghi, a majority agreement was found on article 2 of the Competition bill , the one on bathing concessions .

As explained by various participants in the meeting with the executive, the final text refers to the implementing decrees the definition of compensation for those who will not obtain renewal after years of activity, without reference to the start-up of the activity, the value of the assets, appraisals and accounting records.

Now the amendment will go to the Senate Budget Committee for its opinion, then the Industry Committee will approve it and will complete the examination of the Competition Bill. Therefore, the use of trust has been avoided .

The date of 31 December 2023 by which to ban the beaches is confirmed but on the reasons why the Municipalities can have a derogation of up to one year for the competitions, up to 31 December 2024, it seems a balance has been found.

PD - "We are very satisfied with the result achieved - declare the democratic group leader in the Chamber Debora Serracchiani and the deputy group leader Piero De Luca -. This is a very advanced equilibrium point to define a reasonable legislation, in line with European and constitutional principles. , which allows the renewal of the assignment of bathing concessions to be started in a certain but reasonable time, adequately protecting the accrued trust, the value of the company, the acquired professionalism and the investments made, also with the provision of a specific, necessary, indemnification by the possibly taking over concessionaires. Fundamental guarantees are then provided for small and medium-sized enterprises in the sector, mostly family-run, for the workforce as well as for the protection of the environment, the safeguarding of cultural heritage " .

M5S - The 5 Star Movement, said the president Giuseppe Conte , "has fought in particular to have a balanced solution and above all we have made a very strong contribution so that the compensation game in favor of bathing establishments is defined well and clearly with also reward criteria. for dealers who, obviously, have invested, have a commercial goodwill, they have offered all their professionalism ".

FRATELLI D'ITALIA - The opposition with Giorgia Meloni (FdI) thinks differently: "The one reached by the majority on bathing concessions is a ridiculous and shameful agreement. Postpone the issue of compensation even to the Government, with the more than concrete risk that these are strongly opposed by the European Commission and never see the light, it means leaving the current dealers totally unprotected, who will largely see their companies expropriated in favor of foreign multinationals. Now the State expropriates private individuals for the benefit of other individuals , bigger and stronger ".
