Renzi says school reforms most important

(ANSA) - Rome, November 27 - Premier Matteo Renzi said Thursday that it is not enough to reform Italian institutions, election laws and the Constitution. "The first real reform is that of schools," Renzi said in a speech at the beginning of the semester at a school for tax police. On his controversial Jobs Act labour reform, the premier said that these will result in "fewer excuses but no less rights". Critics, including outraged trade unions, say that his reforms will reduce workers' job protections.
