"We welcome the non-acceptance of the amendment and reiterate that we will reject any attempt to introduce unregulated self-handling into port work". This was stated in a note by Uiltrasporti commenting the amendment to the annual law on competition, tabled by the deputy Luigi Marattin, who aimed to rewrite the paragraph 4-bis of Article 16 of Law 84/94, effectively cancelling - The trade union organization explained - the prohibition of appeal to self-production.

"We will oppose - highlighted Uiltrasporti - any Attempt to undermine Law 84/94 which regulates port work and guarantees the right to work safely. Work instead the approval of the amendments to the budget law for the extension of port agencies in derogation and support pursuant to art.199 decree-law Relaunch and the one that finally makes the fund to accompany the exodus for port workers. A measure common sense, which we have been asking for a long time and which would guarantee the right generational change".
