Interior Minister Matteo Salvini
said Monday that the government intends to hold a special sort
of 'census' of Roma people in Italy.
The new League/5-Star Movement (M5S) executive has said it
wants to close all illegal Roma camps in Italy.
"I'm having them prepare a dossier on the Roma question in
Italy at the ministry because after (former Minister Roberto)
Maroni, nothing has been done and it's chaos," Salvini told
TeleLombardia.
"(There will be) reconnaissance on the Roma people in Italy
to see who, how, how many, re-doing what was called the census.
"We'll have a register".
The minister said that Roma people who do not have the legal
right to be in Italy will be deported via an agreement between
States, adding that "unfortunately, you have to keep the Italian
Roma at home".
