La Presidency of the Council of Ministers, through the Ministry for Regional Affairs and on the proposal of Ministry of the Environment, has formally warned the Lombardy Region on the resolution that authorized the activity of roccoli from Bergamo, Brescia and Lecco. The Region will have to adapt the exceptions adopted within 15 days “in violation of law 157 of 92, of European directive 147 of 2009". Once this deadline is concluded, it is stated in the notice, the Council of Ministers may order the cancellation of the resolution, approved on 31 July last.
"The Yellow-Red Government has warned the Lombardy Region for the derogation on capture plants - these are the words of the President of Federcaccia Lombardy Lorenzo Bertacchi-. It seems that the dispute is the violation of the procedure of art. 19-bis. In reality, the procedure was respected, at the most we could discuss the choices of merit and the reasons for the act, but not of procedure.
We are confident that the Region will want to return the warning to the sender, even if only because the TAR will express itself on 10 October and if it were to allow the opening of the plants the same Government, by canceling, would only demonstrate that not to respect the judiciary and to act under the influence of animal rights stomach ache. Mala tempora currunt! "
