Bresaola (Confetra East Nord): incomprehensible slowness and bureaucratic-administrative inefficiencies penalize the logistic enterprises



Yesterday Confetra East Nord, in occasion of the periodic directive board meeting, has met senator of the Party Democratico Marco Stradiotto to which it has illustrated bureaucratic and administrative the criticalities that - it has explained the territorial association of Confetra - puts in difficulty a field already penalized from the crisis and ripercuotono unavoidably on the competitiveness of the economic system of the Northeast.

"It is not more possible - it has emphasized the president of Confetra East Nord, Giulio Bresaola - to shut up in front of the situation that we live every day. The bureaucratic slowness limits our competitiveness consequently and those of the enterprises that above all entrust to we their goods for the operations of import-export. Every day we endure incomprehensible slowness of the clearances, customs inspections, sanitary and veterinaries previewed for law that they slow down in unacceptable way the flow of the goods. Let us agree - he has specified Bresaola - we we understand that all a series of controls and verifications is necessary, we do not accept but that all this is cause of delays and extra costs. Also because in the remainder of the European ports the transit times of the goods are a lot, but very more expresses. The result is that the goods coming from Far East destined to the Italy North passes through the ports of the Europe North, Antwerp, Rotterdam, also against four days of navigation in more respect to an Italian port. Nevertheless the goods that passes here reaches before, often to smaller costs and with the certainty of transit the Time compared to those that they choose the national ports of call".

"It is time - it has continued Bresaola - to say enough. We have waited for too much time, almost seven years, the door only customs, that it had to be activated within on 27 July last year, but of which we still do not see trace. The regional city council member to Renato Chisso mobility, recently has been said available to push because the port of Venice is first to experience it, hopes to succeed in this enterprise. Today we have illustrated this situation and the possible solutions also to senator Marco Stradiotto, because it contributes to make to understand also in the institutional centers roman our problems".

Confetra East Nord has emphasized that the evidenced problems the association would have to interest the government very, since inefficiency of the customs system and harbour Italian creates damages to all the economy and depresses also the entrances for the State. "Every container that chooses a foreign port - has remembered Confetra East Nord - treasurer for the Italian State is in fact an entered minor. But until the Italian system he will not be comparable for efficiency to that European, this will be very difficult. He means also ports that 24 hours a day works, customs operations carried out in modality pre-clearings, carried out that is while the container is still in navigation, so that the goods once disembarked exits immediately from the harbour fencing. A practical one that for example in the USA is practical current from at least 20 years.

"In Italy - it has found Bresaola - there is by the customs administration a very restrictive attitude and a decidedly higher percentage regarding the Europe North of verifications sometimes with procedures from true state of police, while this in Europe does not happen. The case of the Holland is emblematic that has launched to ministerial level a program whose objective is to return the Holland, within 2020, cites exactly, the market leader in Europe for the control of the flows of goods that they pass through or more European Countries. A project, than second the calculations of the local government will carry an increase of the GDP Dutch of seven billions of euro, while a recent investigation on the Italian situation has evidenced that the bottle necks that grip our logistic system cost to our GDP the beauty of 12 billion euros".

Bresaola has synthetized in six points the measures that second Confetra East Nord are necessary in order to invert the route: to put into effect endured it customs only door; to guarantee the H24 operativity for the computerized shipment of the customs operations; to preview a single Sanitary Authorization against an only customs declaration; to change the objectives of the Agency of Customs: not the attainment of a greater number of verifications but the attainment of the number of operations made from Holland Belgium and Germany; adoption of the pre-clearing as it happens in the ports of the Europe North; possibility of independent correction for the operation computerized in domiciled procedure since eventual errors do not influence on the risk analysis. "Already the performance of these actions - it has observed Bresaola - would afford a meaningful recovery of efficiency and productivity. Certainly that if will be continued with this do-nothing policy, the future sure could not be positive".

"They are much satisfying of this encounter - senator Stradiotto has commented - than has afforded me to deepen the acquaintance of the problematic ones of the section. I understand that the situation indeed is complicated and that an participation is necessary for the companies of this field, but in general terms for all the Italian enterprises that operate with foreign country. I put on myself for this, and I have asked president Bresaola and all the members for the directive council for Confetra East Nord to make me to have in times breviums a note complete and detailed of the nodes to face, that it explains also possible the technical solutions and that quantifies also the economic damage that our Country suffers because of the current anomalies".
