New EU letter on debt, reply by 13/11

(ANSA) - Rome, October 30 - The economy ministry has received a new letter from the European Commission asking for "a report on the so-called 'significant factors' that may justify a debt/GDP ratio with a less marked reduction than that requested," the ministry said Tuesday.
    It said "the reply must be sent by November 13".
    A similar letter was sent in past years, the ministry said.
    The reply "will be sent to Brussels respecting the deadline indicated", it said.
