The comment inforMARE
"The Harbour Authorities - Assoporti supports - are source of entrance and not of expense for the budget of the State". As to say - we observe inforMARE - than the fiscal agencies they are administrations whom they produce entered for the State and do not represent an economic cost for the collectivity.
According to the Association of the Italian Ports - we deduce some - they would not be pays poured from the contributors to constitute the tax revenue of the State how much rather the Agency of the Entrances not to collect, but to produce sums of money to pour in the public cases.
According to we, or Assoporti does not have very anticipates as the ports produce proceeds for the State or equivocates on the etymology of the word "source".
It is comprehensible that, when is of the present time the spending review, every administration is legitimately and right called to evidence the importance of own role, also under the economic profile, to the aims of the correct and effective operation of the State. However Assoporti and the Harbour Authorities do not have to forget which is own function and to make to intend this that it is not.
The Association of the Italian Ports (Assoporti) has introduced its contribution to the government and the parliament for the reform of the legislation in harbour matter, contribution - it has specified the association - that a renewed order has as objectives those of "giving to the logistic system harbour Italian, online with the strategic requirements of system-Country; an able organization of regulating and programming the activities connected to the marine roots of the European essential corridors - Core ports and Core-corridors - than connects them with their important, Italian and European markets, assuming first of all to reference the principles dictated from the European Union". Assoporti has evidenced also the importance to reach "forms of collaboration and possible functional aggregation, also of European transboundary type, between the existing Harbour Authorities, on the same base of a design from the intentional one". "Collaboration and aggregation - it has specified the association - than cannot be yield of a mere process of review of the expense, since today the Harbour Authorities are source of entrance and not of expense for the budget of the State".
Assoporti has explained that own contribution "characterizes some specific proposals: the realization not only of an autonomy financial institution, effective, but of the self-determination financial institution; the constitution, on initiative of the Harbour Authorities, of understanding with the Region or the Regions interested, of harbour and logistic systems of corridor for the promotion of infrastructures of street and railway connection, having care is to the connections between harbour the harbour terminals and back and other nodes of the logistic net of the system, are to the corridors and the characterized Cores ports in communitarian center". "Therefore the harbour Authorities, protagonists of a coordination and an only direction for ports, to interpose to you, road railroads and nets and measures understandings to stimulate a greater involvement of national the productive enterprises in the logistic chain and the increase of the Italian operators of the logistics; moreover, the express callback of the principles that are gone consolidating in center EU for that it regards the technical-nautical services".
President of Assoporti, Pasqualino Monti, has emphasized that "it is a shared proposal to widest majority from the directive council that will be subordinate to the assembly. In that center - he has specified - every associate will be able to propose enrichments and integrations, ulterior topics and indications. Creed of being able to say - it has concluded Monti - that is started a distance to value ulteriorly in inside confronts constructive of the association and with all the members of the cluster. From those public ones to the enterprises, the organizations of the workers".
