(ANSA) - Rome, October 13 - The Senate on Tuesday approved
the government's flagship constitutional reform bill which now
moves back to the House for its fourth reading. The bill was
approved with 179 ayes, 16 nays and seven abstentions. The
reform streamlines Italy's slow, costly political machinery by
creating a smaller, regionally based Senate with limited
lawmaking powers.
