Original news




The association of road-Cna Fita protest the increase decided by the Government raising of excise duties that it is "a wrong decision will weigh more than 1,000 euros per year for each half."

"Just when the cost of diesel and gasoline at the pump began to fall - said the national president of Cna-Fita, Cinzia Franchini - here is yet another blow by the government that increases in excise duties four days of 8 cents per liter . Four cents to finance the Fund for the show and only four cents for the humanitarian emergency in North Africa. For Thursday is also expected a rise of 1% VAT. "

"The Cna-Fita - said Cynthia Franchini - opposes the measure to increase even if done for purposes deserving of the utmost importance.The disagreement is based on the political appropriateness of further depressing areas such as freight and public transport are already severely penalized by the adverse economic situation and the continuous annual increase in fuel prices, tolls and insurance. Antitrust widely reported increases but does not see the government decided against them in properly. "

"To no avail the many funds that are allocated to the category on the card - said the national president of Cna-Fita - if, in fact, with one hand you pretend to give and the other takes off. In the most delicate moment of the trucking dispute with the choice of the executive continues to penalize the industry that is unlikely to recover these increases in the market. According to the average values of mileage and fuel consumption provided by the Ministry of Transport the increase of 8 cents, a year, to 18,633 entrepreneurs in single-vehicle contractors below 7.5 tons will result in additional expenditure of about 22 million euros. A blow to the urban distribution of goods and more. Even for the remaining 32,472 workers for third parties with only one half from 7.5 tonnes up, the reimbursement is excluded by further teasing.For them to anticipate spending waiting for a refund, in itself costly and complex administrative practice, this means an annual outlay of more than 40 million. If we shift the burden on businesses most structured of the measure will increase exponentially. Not to mention all the local public transport such as taxis, tour buses and NCC. For them, the Sting will be no discounts. "
