The Propeller Club of London sums up the problems of the maritime and logistics
These include: customs regulations and inadequate, excessive power of local authorities on the works of national significance, assignment of work based on the maximum downward and monopoly FS
At a convivial evening of the Propeller Club of Milan held on Monday, which was attended by Undersecretary of Infrastructure, Bartolomeo Giachino, and the parent to the PDL Transportation Commission, Vincenzo Garofalo, president of the Propeller Milan, Riccardo Fires, has highlighted the problems which hamper the shipping industry and logistics, and in particular SMEs, issues identified by the club as a vantage point for operators and institutions.
Among them - reminded Fires - "the Italian Customs rules that actually put the operators in a position of extreme difficulty than their colleagues working in other European countries, the excessive power of local governments in relation to major works of national importance to to block any initiative, the assignment of work based on the largest discount that in many cases leads to economic problems, suspension of work and serious harm to the community, the monopoly of the FS group and the need for preparation of the railway infrastructure (both network as intermodal facilities), at least in northern Italy, to promote the conversion modal neighboring countries have already set. "
"On these issues - explained Fires - we want to hear and want to be proactive. So we trust in the constant availability of the Undersecretary Giachino, who often is also invested with issues of jurisdiction does not directly own, to raise awareness of the Ministry of Economy and the Customs Department to ensure that stakeholders are called upon to express their views on issues that have a decisive impact on the activities of the companies they represent.
