Spediporto, the festivity has expanded the delays in the controls on the goods in the port of Genoa



The association of the genoese shippers denunciation that the delays in the development of the controls on the goods in the port of Genoa ulteriorly have been dilated in coincidence with the current succession of festivity and that the situation, already critical in the past weeks, is assuming indefensible levels for operators and importers. "Containers, with goods for million tens euro - the general manager of Spediporto explains, Giampaolo Botta - are arrest warrants to wait for controls that, if all's well, will be able to make solo after the long period of bridges and festivity". "Our operators are all in office, the international traffics do not know all our festivity and - Blow emphasizes - it is hard to explain the fact that they will want to us more also than ten days for a sanitary control or in customs".

Spediporto evidences that "to speak about infrastructures and high technology it does not have sense until when a mentality oriented to the business and the services is not assumed first of all". "The controls - Blow specifies - must be to us and we are first to support it. We hold to the quality that ends on the planks of the Italians, but the risk is to lose important lines of traffic. Goods alimentary, dept freeze, fish, meat, yield and vegetable cannot wait for ten days for a control. So as it is not possible to accept that the more important Italian port with only finds in these weeks three civil employees of the office of Health and with a fistful of civil employees of Customs. We need organic adapted and organizational ability by our administrations".

"There is then - Blow adds - also a safety speech. They are controls - the general manager of the association clarifies referring to the chemical controls radiometric and - that they must be carried out in sure times, in little hours, waves to avoid risks for the same workers". Such Spediporto purpose it asks an adaptation for the authorized staff to carry out these controls that - the association finds - are the same one from ten years over the last while the traffic is doubled, with the result "that the times have become considerable, the containers remain in stack also days before being controlled, in this way are disparaged also the norm that stretches to prevent the exposure to eventual injurious agents".

"We say it for a long time and we today confirm it - Blow concludes - the cycle of the controls must be upgraded, improved and been profitable more efficient. They could be made beyond 100 assumptions between public and private, Region Liguria and AdSP must help to find the necessary one us support from Rome".
