“The one from 2018 it wasn’t a pardon at all“. The 5 Star leader interviewed on ‘Mezz’ora in più’ on Rai 3 rejects the accusations of those who indicate him, with the Morandi decree, as author of the last amnesty for illegal building in Ischia signed in Conte 1, when he was in government with Matteo Salvini’s League.The issue is once again topical after the landslide that devastated the Casamicciola area on Ischia.
“We found ourselves faced with a total blockade. In Ischia – explains the 5 Star leader – we found ourselves with requests for amnesty for about 27 thousand homes out of a total of about 60 thousand on the island. So it was necessary to speed up bogged down practices but it was not a amnesty – he reiterates – and there was no derogation from hydrogeological constraints. We tried to unblock a situation that was unmanageable but – he assures us – without derogating from any constraint”.
Words that raise figures of the current opposition. The first to attack hard is the leader of Italia Viva Matthew Renzi who on social media talks about “ranting statements“. “Conte says that the measure of Ischia was not an amnesty. Article 25 of his decree law – Renzi points out – explicitly speaks of procedures for amnesty in Ischia. Giuseppe Conte must be ashamed! To be ashamed for the amnesty of Ischia – attacks the leader of Iv – and for having closed the mission unit on hydrogeological instability. In 2018 we asked Conte to stop! There is a limit to decency: today he surpassed it.”
Certainly no more tender the ally and leader of Action, Charles Calenda according to which “Conte made a dangerous amnesty in Ischia and canceled the ‘Casa Italia’ mission unit for the sole reason that Matteo Renzi had established it. Both serious mistakes – he attacks -. Italians with style of speech guesswork it’s even worse.”
From the Pd Carlo Cottarelli intervenes limiting himself to reiterating that “the facts speak. The one made by the 5Stelle-Lega government in 2018 for Ischia was yet another building amnesty. The cards speak. The text of the law – Cottarelli reaffirms – speaks of amnesty. You can’t rewrite history at will depending on how the wind blows. Or are we still at: ‘Do you say this?'”, he jokes in a tweet. Words that annoy the League which, with secretary of the chamber in the Chamber, Fabrizio Cecchetti speaks of looting. “Cottarelli instead of keeping silent has the right villain to politically looting babbling about amnesties and more. Truly a baseness that saddens,” he observes.
But the barrage of all the opposition team does not end. To further deny Conte also on the front of compliance with the constraints contained in the 2018 decree, is the leader of the Greens and spokesman of the Green-Left Alliance, Angelo Bonelli: “I am sorry to specify – he underlines – that article 25 of the Morandi decree of 2018 was essentially a new building amnesty and which provided for in paragraph 1 bis the disapplication of article 32 paragraph 27 which concerns hydrogeological constraintsinstead applying the non-pardonability to owners convicted of mafia, art. 27 letter a “.
And from More Europe the secretary Benedetto Della Vedova comments: “The amnesties also for abuses in dangerous places such as that of the Conte government in Ischia in 2018 are a serious mistake because they encourage us to build where it is dangerous, pending new amnesties. Illegalism increases the risks and it must be fought, not condoned”.
But the 5 Star Movement he doesn’t fit in and closes ranks talking about “one political and media looting with few precedents. Claiming – as some media outlets do – that the Conte I Government has given rise to an amnesty in Ischia only because article 25 of the 2018 decree is entitled “definition of amnesty procedures” is instrumental and does not honor the right to proper information to citizens. In that legislation – the 5 Stars still underline – no new amnesty has been introduced but only a path has been established to accelerate the definition of the practices started for years and to allow certain answers to questions relating to pardons decided by previous Executives. Let’s restore the facts. The amnesties in Ischia – underlines a note – have been approved by the Craxi and Berlusconi governments. The Conte Government – the pentastellati continue – in 2018 was faced with the emergency of the earthquake victims and their requests for help for the reconstruction of homes. Faced with this emergency situation the Conte I Government established a very simple thing, namely that on the amnesty procedures dating back to previous years and decades, the State had to speed up the responses: a yes or no to citizens in 6 months, in compliance with existing constraints (landscape, hydrogeological, etc.). Unlawful practices spread with the inertia of the State and what was done in 2018 was to tell the competent Municipalities and administrations to speed up procedures and responses, also by denying – in the event of violation of the constraints – amnesty practices initiated with the decisions of other governments.
