MORATORIUM NOW: THE ASIA-USB, the movements for the right to housing COMMITTEES AND TENANTS OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT REPRESENTATIVES MEET. 
Report meeting with the Secretary Mantovani (Department of Infrastructure, Government policies of the house).
Rome - Friday, October 8, 2010
present than on. Mantovani and his staff, the legislative office and the Director of the housing policy (with delegation to the house) of the Ministry of Infrastructure, the Ministry of Finance director Dr. Graziosi, home to the commissioner of the City of Rome Antoniozzi, the movements for the right to housing of Roma, a representative of the tenants committee and a committee Enasarco Cassa Forense, AS .IA / USB.
After the introduction, where we reiterated our request for a moratorium and predictable resources focused on building public housing funding, criticizing the "house plan" centered sull'housing social and highlighting the risk that local authorities without public funding opt permanently to be subordinated to individuals willing to monetize public land and facilities procedural and tax. He also strongly advocated to be convened as soon as a table with the Ministry of Finance, Facilities and Welfare, with local authorities, the ANCI and movements. We also tried to propose a protocol to work together with the moratorium initiated a process of redefinition of the public role in national housing policy, with particular regard to the situation in Rome, widely considered to be explosive.
Even the commissioner has supported our thesis Antoniozzi evoking the image of the devil and holy water that say the same thing (of course he is considered holy water). Saying this, he asked to stop the train before the situation becomes unsustainable from the point of view of public order and the administration has made clear which way to take in the absence of a serious government intervention. He talked about land use planning and leverage to do with the usual cash prizes of airspace for the usual suspects. How to tell if you do not get money from the ministry must obtain them from those who have it and clearly this will not be free in terms of consumption of public land. With regard to the events of the privatized entities are also concerned that more has been said by the end of the 9-year truce for the tenants of the previous securitisations, which will add to those who today are struggling with disposals and higher rents. The commissioner has explicitly asked the government - in addition to the moratorium - To convene such institutions, remembering what is to be of public benefit.
In his address, Secretary, and cut with our considerations, told the meeting that took place in the morning with the Conference of the regions are trying to evade its responsibilities by invoking the fifth title in the Regions which assigns ownership of the interventions under the rules of fiscal federalism.
He had to acknowledge the total lack ERP with just 2000 homes built in recent years all over Italy (and - as he himself said - in France if they build 50,000 a year) and the priority which should give a raise the policies of the home. This is not easy, he said, because the business plan is dramatic and Tremonti cut horizontally resources. We talked about funding for a half billion euro to the Regions, with a tranche of 370 recently arrived million. Here we asked how much money came in the Lazio region and are committed next week to give us the national framework region to region.
Another indication that it did not work is the sale of public housing. The indications of the government were to sell 1 million homes and this is not the case with his very great disappointment, because he believes it is appropriate to give her these houses continue to shoulder the maintenance. A controversial view that says a lot the idea of \u200b\u200bpreservation of public property of this government.
sharply Mr. Mantovani acknowledged that social housing is not an answer to the legitimate needs that we raise and that is why the government has made only 140 million € and then letting the market and the fund managers' investment for living "headed by cash deposits and loans, the definition of criteria and lists of access. How to say what we should do now I think we did the regions and municipalities to find harmony with the bottom and with individuals. It is clear that what we are told it confirms our fiercest criticism to this hypothesis.
The moratorium was expressed in a very cautious as possible on the bodies has proved to evictions for non-payment advanced by individuals. We anticipated that the proposed outputs from the meeting would report to the Minister and the Prime Minister Matteoli. On the control of disposal operations has reaffirmed the government not to sign any bill which would allow to operate freely advocated by the Public Funds that are selling their apartments at market price, as Enasarco, etc..
rating on the meeting was positive as regards the attention paid to the tenant of the organizations and it is likely that significant steps will be taken soon. More
interim step on general issues, including general moratorium on evictions of individuals and resources for Erp, indeed we might say that there seems to be a problem to be addressed urgently for the government.
We were able to impose an important step but it is clear that the road is still long for the movement and absolutely must have a national image. Only Rome is being measured in general terms while other disputes have mainly a local character that we must try to push the last week of October to rally together in a decentralized manner. One senses that it is time the shoulder, but must be built.
At the local level instead of the positive result regarding our authority in the relationship and indirectly with government could close a number of issues in a positive way. There may be space for a new start on the ground of our "full and quality employment, especially in light of the meeting with the prefect of Rome. On these issues, it would not hurt to convene the Assembly on Monday after 17 to 11 at Volturno a meeting for further study, perhaps even a laboratory.
