Trasportounito accusation other trade associations for the failure EU of the costs minimums of the road haulage
Longo: "ulterior smacco for furbetti very notes associations of representation"
September 8, 2014
According to Trasportounito, the Italian law on the costs minimums of the road haulage, that is the minimal rates to respect in order to carry out a transport of goods on rubber on the Italian roads, is rejected last week by the Law court of the European Union ( on 4 September 2014) "priority because the Italian legislator, on indication of the associations of representation of the road haulage, had entrusted to an Observatory, pure expression of the interests of those associations, the task to carry out the regolator and judge role".
"The pronunciamento of the communitarian Court - the general secretary of Trasportounito has denounced, Maurizio Longo - is a real one smacco for those associations of the road haulage animated by an unwarrantable protagonismo that, in the presumption of being able to dictate the rules of the market of the road haulage services, has produced a literally destroyed normative system from the Law court with two evidences: the roved composition of the Observatory that in fact is a "Association of interests"; the presumed connection with the application of the principle of "street safety", not only too much generic but quite returned inconsistent from the exceptions".
"And this - it has concluded Longo - has produced two equally serious results: on one side that to have hasty a road haulage already to the limits of the survival, in a total picture normative anarchy; from the other that to generate heavy question marks also on the terzietà and neutrality of other organisms publics to which the entrepreneurs of the field would have to make reference".
