Merlon (AP Genoa): the study of Eurostat on the European portualità is dated and clamorously mistaken
In 2012 - it has emphasized - Genoa it has obtained its historical record with beyond two million container while million are only attributed to him about it to 1,5
March 19, 2014
A decided gripe for the representation of the Italian ports that would gush from the statistical relationship diffused yesterday from Eurostat on the European portualità has reached also from the president of the Harbour Authority of Genoa, Luigi Merlo, than to half last year it has delivered the witness of the guide of Assoporti to Pasqualino Monti on the base of an alternation to the presidency of the Association of the Italian Ports decided between the initiatives in order to hold united the representation of national the Harbour Authorities ( on 5 July 2012).
"I am abashed - it has declared Merlon - from the picture that emerges from the Eurostat relationship I yield totally of mistaken foundations. I share - it has added - how much express from Assoporti, but add that I would want to know how much coast and by who a study is paid that beyond being dated is clamorously wrong. Pack-saddles to think to the port of Genoa that in 2012 has obtained its historical record in handling of the container exceeding two the million while a million are only attributed to him about it and 500 thousand. There is from wondering which reliabilities can have truths that commit clamorous errors so. It is obvious that an immediate correction of the clamorous error attends us while I will verify the way to improve for protecting the port of Genoa in all the centers".
"Such a superficiality and an analysis completed on wrong data that can have effects on the market - have still denounced the president of the Harbour Authority of Genoa - it cannot be sottaciuta and ignored. I hope that also the government assumes a net position and strong and of censorship regarding who has elaborated the study. It is necessary however - it has concluded Merlon - to proceed quickly with the reform law and to increase to the force and the authority in communitarian center with strong policies of field. The dismissal of the approval of the European regulations has been a very bad sign".
