"The so-called "erase-ship" - Cassinelli has explained - is the equipment of money delivered to the commander of a ship to its arrival in port: the accomplishment of the service consists in the disposition by the shipowner of a discount in favour of the marine raccomandatario which cash captures from the bank the amount object of discount and the delivery to the commander of the ship of property of the shipowner; the decree-law n. 201 of 2011 (save-Italy) that modification article 49 of the decree-law n. 231 of 2007 regarding the use of the cash has created large difficulties for the marine agencies: the limit of 999,99 euros introduced from I decree - it has emphasized the parliamentarian - is completely insufficient and, in many cases, for the accomplishment of the service they have been come to create enormous operating criticalities, with the commander who must be accompanied from the marine raccomandatario in bank for the identification and the withdrawal of money of the money, with all the problematic ones that involve to distract the same commander from the numerous tasks and responsibility that has during the berthing and the permanence of the ship in port".
