Proposed ANITA anticipates to Brussels of modification of the directive on the taxation of the energetic produced ones
The diesel oil affects for 20-30% on the operating costs of the Italian enterprises of road haulage and octroi for 40% about the price to the pump
March 22, 2011
ANITA, the association of Confindustria that reunites the enterprises larger than road haulage, has announced to have introduced some proposals to the EU commission, that she is working to the modification to directive 2003/96 to the aim to define a various methodology of the taxation of the energy, with the objective to approach the energetic costs of the Italian companies those of the other communitarian nations. The proposals have been subordinates also to the Italian government: "it is necessary to approach the costs of the Italian enterprises - the ANITA president has explained, Eleuterio Arcese - those of the enterprises of the other Countries in order to reduce the competitive distortion. To such fine we have sent our proposals to ministers Matteoli and Tremonti in order to evidence such problematic ones".
The association has remembered that in Italy the octrois on the diesel oil are between highest in Europe and that this places the Italian enterprises in remarkable disadvantage regarding those of other Countries. . ANITA has emphasized that the fixed enforced norm the minimal level of octrois pairs to 0,330 euros for liter of diesel oil and that in Italy the octrois are pairs to 0,423 euros for liter, figure that - also removing the previewed reimbursement - carries the level to 0,403 euros, between highest of Europe.
Between the proposals introduced by ANITA is therefore the elevation of the minimal level of taxation in order to reduce of the difference regarding that enforced one in the Countries with more elevated taxation. Then - second the association - it is necessary see again the forecast of the professional diesel oil, even if - has specified ANITA - such proposal is meeting remarkable difficulties in the Union, and is necessary to eliminate or at least to reduce the periods of exception for the Countries with more entered lowland taxation and in particular for those new ones.
