Cabinet Secretary Maria Elena
Boschi should not take part in the October 27 cabinet meeting
where the government will appoint a new governor of the Bank of
Italy, the leftwing MDP party said Monday.
MDP MP Arturo Scotti said Boschi, whose father Pier Luigi
was deputy president of one of four regional lenders saved by
the government, had "a heavy conflict of interest which cannot
be ignored".
The ruling centre-left Democratic Party (PD) caused a stir
with a recent motion criticising Bank of Italy Governor Ignazio
Visco's handling of Italy's banking crisis.
Visco's term is up for possible renewal. The government may
also name a successor.
