The Region will open a dispute with the State to get back 1.7 billion. But there is no chance of the bill on suitable areas returning to the committee to work on a synthesis with Pratobello 24. This was stated by Governor Alessandra Todde, at the end of the Council meeting.

Pratobello and suitable areas

"In the meantime, there is no possibility because they are two laws with different purposes. The Pratobello has a suspensive purpose, while law 45 has a planning value. So at this moment we must plan the areas that must be destined to make plants, instead those that must be protected, and we must do it precisely because our territory obviously, also according to national legislation, must be protected in this way, in a timely manner. It is very clear", Todde claims, "that saying generically that there are no suitable areas is not protective, we have a suspensive law that is working very well, so at this moment bringing a law that could possibly have opposed law 5 is obviously not what is needed at this moment. We discussed in commission a law that is 45, which is a planning law, we will bring it to the chamber as we must do to protect the Sardinians and the environment of the landscape of Sardinia".

Differentiated autonomy

The ruling of the Constitutional Court on the moratorium is expected in mid-December. "But we expect to approve the law in that time frame so that it is overcome by planning that has been widely shared by the mayors, by the local communities, we have the opinion of the Cal. We have worked transparently , the commission has held the hearing cycle on several occasions also with different committees, we have accepted some of the observations that have come to us from them. So a choral effort has been done: we obviously expect the Council, sovereign from this point of view, to do what it has to do."

Dispute with the State

Todde also announced a legal dispute, approved by resolution, against the Ministry of Economy for one billion and 700 million: «It has emerged that in the last ten years the Italian State owes Sardinia one billion and seven hundred million».

The provision states that "from the annual summary tables of tax revenues devolved by the State to the Region, it emerged that the amount subject to compensation (in negative) on the co-participation shares, although variable from year to year and which, starting from 2020, has increased significantly, up to the significant leap of the last two years when from the quantification of 146 million in 2021 it went to 256 million in 2022 and finally to 424 million in 2023; this latter amount, also confirmed for 2024".

"What was proposed to us a few weeks ago by the Ministry of Economy and Finance," adds the governor, "was a fifty percent settlement and write-off in ten years. It certainly cannot be acceptable or satisfactory, so we have decided to proceed through legal means."
