Economy Deputy Minister Maurizio Leo
said after cabinet approval of a legislative decrees on tax
collection and games Monday that "the government will continue
to fight against the scoundrels, while there is every will to
help those who want to pay but are unable to settle their debt
with the tax authorities in full".
"For this reason, we will help taxpayers by increasing the
maximum instalment plan," he added, "which will gradually
increase from 72 to 120 instalments.
'There are already ten decrees implementing the tax reform
presented to cabinet of which eight have been definitively
approved," said Leo.

first reading the decree on tax collection.
"This is an important intervention on a complex and delicate
matter, which has three objectives: to streamline the current
stock of tax debts, currently at 1,200 billion; to prevent the
creation of another stock of the same size in the future; and to
make collection faster and more efficient, in line with the main
European countries".
