Dattoli (Inrete): “Public Affairs one of the transmission belts of democracy”
“We welcome the goal of the DdL to regulate lobbying and respond to the principles of publicity, democratic participation, transparency and awareness of decision-making processes. First of all, it is a question of defining a profession made up of preparation, dedication and study, as the many young people we continually hire and train show us every day. However, it is necessary to intervene in the Senate with changes that allow greater effectiveness of the decision-making process to balance the new obligations for members ”. To declare it today at a hearing in the Senate Constitutional Affairs Commission, regarding the examination of the bill on the discipline of the representation of interests, Simone DattoliChief Executive Officer and Founder of Inrete, a leading consulting firm in Public Affairs, which has been operating in the sector for more than 10 years.
Dattoli: “Public Affairs, a significant evolution over the years”
“The activity of institutional relations has undergone a significant evolution over the years, both in terms of the tools of interest representation and the skills – including vertical – required, especially in an emergency context characterized by regulatory overproduction, and a fluctuating interinstitutional dialogue . The activity of Public Affairs has therefore proved to be one of the transmission belts of democracy between the life of a people and those who represent them, often providing a fundamental and irreplaceable contribution to political decisions for the growth of the country “.
“This framework of activity can guarantee the widest participation of society, at all levels, in the definition of public policies, increasing the value, quality and sharing of public regulation”.
Dattoli: “Allowing greater connection with the needs of companies and the market”
In commenting on the text in question and positively acknowledging that the recognition that a transparent decision-making process by the public decision-maker must take into account, in the modern context, a plurality of stakeholders and actors involved in various capacities is an assumption. , Dattoli wanted to highlight that “in our opinion it would be necessary to intervene, with respect to the text approved by the Chamber, to allow greater connection with the needs of companies and the market”.
Among the provisions prescribed, the bill indicates the obligation to register in the register of stakeholders for various subjects, Dattoli points out that “the exclusion for trade unions, entrepreneurial organizations and investee companies creates disparities between subjects operating in the the same sector, implicitly produces interests that prevail over others and opens up to gray and non-regulated areas “.
Dattoli continues on the agenda of the meetings provided for in article 5: “the obligation to update the agenda of the stakeholder on a weekly basis necessarily entails an assessment of the implementation methods that do not reconcile with company timing. These obligations risk being anachronistic with respect to the evolution of decision-making processes – he adds – it would be highly desirable to eliminate detailed and sensitive information on meetings in order to protect strategies, policies and company secrets covered by the NDA “.
Public Affairs, Dattoli: “It is desirable to introduce rules designed with a view to simplification”
“To conclude, we believe that the introduction of common sense rules is necessary and desirable, designed with a view to simplifying and overcoming the barriers that cause exploitation of the sector, helping professionals to carry out with even greater seriousness and tranquility the their job in compliance with the rules. Getting rid of preconceptions and really hoping for a legislative outcome, this time, could really be good news “.
