(ANSA) - Rome, August 24 - SCrapping the ILVA tender won by Arcelor Mittal is still on the cards, Industry Minister Luigi Di Maio said Friday.
    "We are still verifying the public interest," he said.
    Di Maio said "the issue of scrapping the tender is not closed. He said Arcelor Mittal "have done well and in good faith but the State has made a mess".
