No members of the centre-left
Democratic Party (PD) will have a senior post in the Lower
House's so-called special committee after votes staged Thursday
saw the positions go to members of the League, the
anti-establishment 5-Star Movement and Forza Italia (FI).
Although the PD, which led the governments of the last
parliamentary term, performed badly in last month's inconclusive
general election, it is still the second-biggest party in
parliament behind the M5S.
The League's Nicola Molteni was elected president of the
committee.
FI's Andrea Mandelli and the M5S's Giorgio Trizzino were
elected vice-presidents, while Vittorio Ferraresi (M5S) and
Paolo Russo (FI) are the new secretaries.
