Premier Paolo Gentiloni said
after a cabinet meeting Thursday that "above and beyond
discussions on the speed or slowness of reforms, the government
is continuing in its path with very significant decisions, from
safeguarding savings to urban security to immigration".
Gentiloni said Italy "shows continuing economic difficulties"
but also "very encouraging positive signs" including
"extraordinary data on trade, very important results on tax
evasion and contradictory data on jobs - those out today were
fundamentally positive".
He said it would be a "deadly political error if the
government depressed or dissipated these signs".
Gentiloni said that the cabinet had approved a "corrective
decree to the tenders code for greater simplicity and
transparency and to try to give a contribution to the
recovery of tenders and public works".
