Money to start on quake reconstruction (2)

(ANSA) - Rome, September 29 - The money to start on reconstruction after the August 24 earthquake in central Italy is available but cost estimates will be hard to make, Premier Matteo Renzi said Thursday. "The money to start with is there, then it's hard to make estimates on costs, it depends what you include. But we're not afraid to put in everything that serves for Home Italy," he said, referring to a decades-long plan to make Italy quake-proof. "I'm thinking of schools for example, on which there's no discussion". The quake razed whole villages in Lazio and Marche and killed 298 people.
