Today, presenting the annual report to Parliament of the Transport Regulation Authority, the president of the ART, Nicola Zaccheo, focused among other things on the port concessions, recalling in its report that we publish in the "Forum of Shipping and Logistics" and to the Authority 'The power to express an opinion on the duration of the concessions of areas and docks, which must be commensurate with the investments envisaged by the Economic Plans (PEF) submitted by participants in the assignments called by the Port System Authorities (Port System Authorities) and elaborated on the basis of specific formats adopted by ART". "At the conclusion of a consultation launched by resolution no. 75/2024 - Zaccheo recalled again - the Authority has adopted, by Resolution no. 89/2024, the scheme on the basis of which prepare the PEFs that are required to present the participants the tender procedures for the granting of the concessions referred to in in art. 18 of Law 84/1994".

"In order to fully exercise the new powers - he specified the president of the Regulatory Authority of the Transport - it is even more necessary to have access to information on port concessions. Waiting for the completion of the data upload to the Information System of the maritime property (SID), which it is hoped will take place soon - Zaccheo announced - the Authority has requested the Port Authorities to provide a minimum list of information of interest, given the crucial importance of the adequacy of the relevant information assets for the purpose of exercising the functions of regulation of the Authority's competence".
