The ANCIP is associated to the initiative against the possible demand EU to recover taxes not poured from the AdSP for the collection of the canons



The National Association Companies Harbour Enterprises (ANCIP) has answered affirmatively to the appeal launch from the president of Assoporti, Zeno D' Augustin, and from the president of Confetra, Nereo Marcucci, in order to ask for the infraction procedure that the Concorrenza Head office of the EU commission would have the intention of start in order to speed up the collection of taxes that the Italian ports would not have poured, taxes that instead - second the offices of the DG - would be due as the activities carried out from the Authorities of Harbour System for the collection of the concessori canons would be from considering economic activities subject to fiscal imposition ( of the 16 and 16 April 2018).

"As trade association, that it groups almost the totality of enterprises art. 17 and numerous enterprises art. 16 that operate in the Italian ports - has emphasized ANCIP in a note - strongly we are worried of provisions that go to belittle the ability to participation and management of as soon as instituted Authority of Harbour System, interrupting a vituous process that aimed to throw again the Italian portualità".

"The Italian portualità, all, as in this moment - it has emphasized the association of the harbour companies - it never must be united and compact to reject the demands that reach from Brussels, among other things in contradiction with the European regulations and difficultly comprehensible motivation".

"It is well to remember - it has specified ANCIP - as always has been the same European Community to leave freedom of chosen on as managing and administering the ports and internal infrastructures to they. With the law n.84/94 our Country chose the model "Landlord port" with the State that remains, through its Harbour Authorities (now Authority of Harbour System), owner of the ports and infrastructures, but that the management of the same ones affords, so as all the relative operations and services to the so-called "cycle ship", to authorized private companies. Us it seems therefore at least inexact to compare the Authorities of Harbour System, not economic public bodies, to the private companies. Consequently to want to make to appear same the AdSP engaged in economic activities is pretestuoso and dangerous".

"With these demands - it has found ANCIP - Europe would interfere on the managerial and administrative model of the Italian ports. We would not want that these choices hid an attempt, to start privatistica politics on the aim to change the pubblicistica nature of our ports".

ANCIP has restated therefore, with force, "the important role and strategic that the new Authorities of Harbour System, as public bodies, have to light in the Italian system also of the reforms brought to the law n.84/94 from you decree legislative n.169/2016 and n.232/2017. We are therefore available - it has concluded the association - to collaborate, until from quickly, with all the harbour cluster and the Italian government in order to resolve this worrisome event".
