CGIL Genoa, on the area of Fincantieri to Sestri West Confindustria refutes if same
Worry for the hypothesis of scenes that would take off shoes and socks the shipbuilding
March 28, 2011
Replying to recent declarations of the president of Genoa Confindustria, Giovanni Calvini, that it had shown I use it of the area of the upset to sea of the genoese plant of Fincantieri to Sestri West for the takeover of different industrial activities from those of shipbuilding the naval one, Antongiulio Mannoni of the secretariat of the Trade union office CGIL Genoa, it has emphasized that such declarations "are only the last dowel of a species of comedy of the absurdity that is repeated in our city every time that the possibility of an participation is materialized that of it can requalify the territory and strengthen its industrial vocation".
"That Piero Ottone thunders periodically to defense of the world of the yachting against the hypothesis of the sixth basin - has added Mannoni - can also be comprehensible, visa its particular horizon. But that genoese Confindustria ignores the extended desert of Cornigliano (250 thousand square metres on hand of industrial projects unfortunately still all to verify) and assumes scenes of hypothetical international subjects to place in the areas of the so-called "upset to sea" of Sestri West for takeovers that would take off shoes and socks the shipbuilding, is very more worrisome".
The trade-union representative has observed as "Confindustria, moreover, refutes if same being subject signer of the understanding protocol on September 26, 2009 that she restated the engagements of the several interested subjects (Common, Fincantieri, Labor organizations) to (textual) "the expansion to sea of the areas dedicated to the shipbuilding one"".
"The international crisis that interests also the market of the crocieristica construction - has found Mannoni - it goes faced without to chase imaginative hypotheses or reproposing a debate that we thought buried in years eighty about the presumed overcoming of the centrality of the ship yards to Genoa. Fincantieri and the property, the government, must exit from the phase of the advances to means print and to face in a national table the topics of the productive development of the yards, of the necessary investments to the innovation and the competition, abandoning every hypothesis of reorganization of the productive abilities".
"The necessities of potenziamento of the naval repairs through works as the sixth basin that allow to answer quickly to the requirements of a market in evolution - have continued Mannoni - they are a distinguished and separated topic that it finds the more effective solution and than smaller impact on the genoese territory, in the current area of the repairs. The fact that the naval repairs and the shipbuilding one occupy in our province thousands of direct workers and of the induced one cannot be considered as variable secondary and an annoying one. They are, with the respective office districts and of search, a professional patrimony of absolute excellence, that it generates, in the picture of a hard international competition, thrust to the innovation and new enterprises: in a word, wealth for our city".
"The engagement recently assumed from all the genoese and from Liguria institutions, from the Harbour Authority, the social parts, because it is arrived to the definition of an agreement of program together with Fincantieri and to the government for the work of filling to Sestri West - it has concluded the exponent of the union - it is a fundamental moment of this event. The workers, than already pay the repercussions of the crisis with the redundancy fund and hours of strike dedicated to prevent the closing or the reorganization of their yards, needs certainties. Every subject, in the within of its representation, must demonstrate analogous responsibility in order to guarantee to this city the maintenance and the development of the construction and the repair of the ships, than, with the port, is some from always its identity".
