Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte on
Monday told the 2019 Rome Investment Forum that the government
will work on an investment reform plan after the approval of the
2020 budget law.
"Allow us to complete the last mile" of the measure, Conte
said.
"Once it is approved, we will focus on a project for a better
future for our country and on planning the necessary structural
reforms and the majority of the discussion will be dedicated to
a program to make investments more effective".
The premier said the project would focus on three issues: "a
rationalization of public resources by boosting the partnership
between the public and private" sectors, "simplifying the
regulatory framework and reducing bureaucratic burdens".
Democratic Party (PD) leader Nicola Zingaretti said Monday a
new "agenda 2020" should be drawn up by the government after the
budget is passed.
The PD is in a coalition whose senior partner is the
anti-establishment 5-Star Movement (M5S).
The other members are the new centrist Italia Viva (IV) party
and the leftwing Free and Equal (LeU) party.
There has recently been tension between the partners over the
budget, the reform of the European Stability Mechanism (ESM) and
a reform of the statute of limitations.
