May 11, 2015
The city council member to Infrastructures of the Region Liguria, Raffaella Paita, has asked the director of the Agency of Customs and the Monopolies, Giuseppe Peleggi, an encounter with Region, Harbour Authority of and categories interested to the topic of the customs corridors. Referring to the intense debate on the topic of the customs corridors that has involved in the last weeks mainly representatives of the institutions and the operators of the logistics of, Paita he has specified in the letter to Peleggi that "the many worried shipping agents and their workers are a lot that an indiscriminate opening of these procedures can prejudice the survival of many companies".
"He is obvious - it has written the regional city council member - that it must operate so that our terminalisti can compete to weapons pairs with their European competitors, but I I believe that he can be made characterizing a shared and not traumatic distance. It is necessary to support a stiff national design to entrust to the Agency of Customs the coordination of all the controls on the goods, to succeed in to make to operate the controls 24 hours a day and to avoid disparity of procedures between ports and to interpose to you in favor of these last ones Would be unthinkable - it has found Raffaella Paita - that the ports exclusively became place of transit without to guarantee a future to the professionalities that have contributed to make them to grow".
Scope of the encounter - it has specified the city council member - is "to characterize a way to operate that it allows also with the shippers spezzini to compete on the market and to guarantee the continuity of their activities. The fear - it has observed Paita - is that, instead verifying case by chance, limiting the corridors to particular situations and very delimited, is wanted to be proceeded for operators in indiscriminate way with the most serious consequences that they inside carry out this function of the marine ports of call".
"Analogous worries, but with reference to the perspectives - it has specified the regional city council member - are evidenced me also by the genoese operators and therefore, with to Harbour Authority and operators, they are to ask an encounter also for Genoa".
