President Sergio Mattarella is
resuming government consultations Monday and has summoned
Five-Star Movement (M5S) representatives with leader Luigi Di
Maio at 5:30 pm and Northern League officials with leader Matteo
Salvini at 6 pm, the Quirinale Palace has announced.
In Particular, Mattarella will meet with Di Maio and Danino
Toninelli and Giulia Grillo, respectively M5S Senate and Lower
House whips, at 5:30 pm.
He will then meet with Senate and Lower House whips for the
Northern League, Gian Marco Centinaio and Giancarlo Giorgetti,
together with the party's leader Salvini half an hour later.
The anti-establishment 5-Star Movement (M5S) conducted an
online vote of members about the government contract it has
agreed with the anti-migrant, Euroskeptic League, which also
consulted supporters about the program via voting at stands
throughout the country at the weekend.
The contract for the M5S-League government features plans to
introduce a two-tier flat tax, a basic income and the revision
of a 2011 pension reform that raised the retirement age, among
other measures.
