The government should safeguard
traditional families and beef up policies for "the family
founded on a father and mother who seem to be absolutely missing
at the moment," the secretary-general of the Italian Bishops'
Conference (CEI), Msgr Nunzio Galantino, said Wednesday, denying
reports he had met the rapporteur of a civil-union bill, Monica
Cirinnà. The government led by Premier Matteo Renzi aims to
introduce German-style legislation putting civil unions a rung
below marriage with adoptions ruled out.
