Hard dissent of Trapani Confindustria regarding any hypothesis of amalgamation of the port of the city to a new authority



Yesterday the president of Confindustria Trapani, Gregory Bongiorno, has sent a note to the institutions, to the labor organizations and whom elected the national and regional deputation in province of Trapani in which he expresses alarm and worry for the insistent news with respect to announced the radical reform of which got ahead law 84/94 from the minister of Infrastructures and the Transports, Maurizio Lupi, that he would presee the reduction of the number of the Harbour Authorities. Objective of the initiative of Bongiorno is to set foot in a sinergica action of all the involved parts to protection of the entire Trapani territory, than - according to the president of Trapani Confindustria - it would once again risk to endure participations you set up from above, without being able to decide.

"The stiff reform to reduce the number of the current Harbour Authorities - Gregory Bongiorno has explained - would translate in the facts in the creation greater Harbour Authorities as logistic districts. In this optical a first paradoxical aspect of the paventata reform, would be represented by the fact that the port of Trapani also being from the 2009 lacking one in a its Harbour Authority, would re-enter however in the reorganization of the Italian ports. The directed consequence of this reformist project would be, probably, that to see to more end the port of Trapani under the jurisdiction of a new and which extended (for territorial competences) Harbour Authority of the logistic district of the western Sicily, whose governance verosimilmente would be entrusted to Palermo.
From - it has emphasized Bongiorno - the worries of the Trapani harbour section are born here, but more in general terms of the entire entrepreneurial world. Of facts the issue port cannot and it does not have to be circumscribed the single harbour operators, as this regards the entire territory and the community all".

"The port of Trapani, so as the Airport of Birgi - it has continued the president of Trapani Confindustria - is a strategic, fundamental infrastructure for the development and the economic increase of the entire Trapani territory and that it goes to impattare on other important fields as tourism, the agricultural and food- one, the marble. These last ones, all fields induced on which the entrepreneurs they are betting and investing a lot, reaching among other things most important turned out, and to which the territory looks with great hope and as opportunity in order to exit from the crisis".

Trapani confindustria has expressed therefore "hard dissent regarding any reform that previews hypothesis that the port of Trapani comes in some the accorpato and however managed way from a new Authority, in which they would go to coexist harbour truths (Trapani and Palermo) in the totally various facts for history, organization, typicity, but above all in absolute competition between they it is for markets that for example for the reference fields".

"Probably in order to throw again the Italian portualità - it has concluded Bongiorno - less bureaucracy would serve and above all it put up infrastructural participations (dredgings, requalification infrastructural etc). For reasoning thoroughness, us like also to remember that the ports so as the airports are alone the point of arrival or departure of goods and passengers, and that therefore it would be also necessary to develop in organic way all the system of the transports as roads, freeways, to interpose to you, railway nets, etc These topics would have to be inserted rightfully in the agenda of politics and more in general terms in a total strategy of the system of the transports".
