Transport Minister Danilo
Toninelli called for a "national plan for the country" after the
Genoa bridge collapse that killed 43 August 14, instead of
"scrambling after emergencies."
"We will completely revise the system of concessions," he
said.
Toninelli commented on Autostrade's publication of its
convention earlier in the day by saying "here are the effects of
the action of the government of change.
"After almost 20 years of privatisation, after 20 years of
secrets and redactions, Autostrade per l'Italia suddenly says it
wants to be transparent, trying to make its gesture seem
spontaneous and dictated by an autonomous desire to meet the
public interest," he said.
Toninelli published a letter with which, a few days ago, he
asked the ministry to work towards publication of the
convention.
He said all concessionaries' conventions would soon be
published on the ministry's website.
Toll charges should have been "drastically" cut, the minister
added.
Toninelli added that "esponsibilities for conventions were
"solely political".
