Commission didn't object to 0.3% adjustment - Padoan

(ANSA) - Luxembourg, October 10 - The European Commission made no objection to Italy's request for it to make a budget adjustment of 0.3% in 2018, far less than previously agreed, Economy Minister Pier Carlo Padoan said Tuesday. "Italy has requested and obtained a structural adjustment of 0.3% instead of what had been planned," Padoan said at the end of an ECOFIN meeting.
    "The European Commission said that it received this request (in a letter) and did not object".
