The " Milleproroghe " is a creature of the new millennium. The first measure commonly referred to by this name is Decree-Law No 30 December 2005 273. A successful innovation, which has become a tradition: on time, every New Year is presented a new decree on the "Extension of deadlines set by laws." For New Year's Eve Milleproroghe plus those adopted at the change of term: it the Decree No. 73, May 12, 2006 and Decree No. 113 of 30 June 2008. In short, the decree into question these days is already the eighth specimen of the species.
The very fact that each year it is necessary to hasten to issue a decree with hundreds of sub-paragraphs (see list below) to extend deadlines already set by previous laws is indicative of the malfunctioning of the state: no commitments unable to comply on time and you ask for a referral, readily granted. Indeed, it is perhaps an indicator of national character: often the court does not so much about the tasks of As rules for citizens , abusive homes by the fall of the banning of plastic bags for shopping. This partly explains why, in general, throughout the conversion law in the decree, the proposed extensions were added by the government suggested by several other MPs: given that the measure must be approved before then by default, the temptation to insert between the measures more diverse and strong. It is an inexpensive way to meet the demands of lobbies and interest groups.

PRODUCTION BY MEANS OF PARAGRAPHS PARAGRAPHS
This year is no exaggeration: the President of the Republic in its letter of 22 February states that "a The amendments made by Senate committees and the Government with the next maxi-amendment, the original text of the decree-law, consisting of 4 items (of which one third on the financial security and the fourth entry into force) and 25 paragraphs, 5 other items were added and 196 paragraphs. From 25 to 221 paragraphs, an increase of almost ten times.
to look good, there is a novelty that explains what happened: the reform of budgetary procedures passed in late 2009. One of the key points of this reform is the new Law of stability, more streamlined the old Budget Law. In particular, the specific content of the Law of Stability non compaiono più “norme che comportano aumenti di spesa o riduzioni di entrata ed il cui contenuto sia finalizzato direttamente al sostegno o al rilancio dell'economia” (che invece rientravano nel contenuto della Legge finanziaria). Se si tiene a mente questa novità, si capisce come non sia casuale che nel titolo del Milleproroghe di dicembre 2010 oltre alla solita “proroga di termini previsti da disposizioni legislative” compaiano “interventi urgenti in materia tributaria e di sostegno alle famiglie e alle imprese”. E si comprende bene l’invito del Presidente della Repubblica a evitare che il Milleproroghe “si trasformi sostanzialmente in una sorta di nuova legge finanziaria dai contenuti più disparate. "

NOT ONLY EXTENSIONS
The call of the President is particularly relevant because the Milleproroghe actually contains many new rules and not mere extensions of existing treatments. New rules that in some cases radically change the economic policy guidelines. Here are some examples:
Article 2-c, paragraph 1, provides that in municipalities with more than 250 thousand inhabitants is "an experimentation in favor of charitable organizations" in the management of social card the last twelve months. The technical report accompanying the measure is more precise about what you intend to do, "the rule identifies as the beneficial not the final recipient of the card, but the association is committed to distribute it. " In other words, the state will give the card to buy an unspecified " charitable organizations" and the latter will have to decide who to social card and who is not, by subtracting this to the service performance of municipalities. It is a revolution in the management of welfare. Instead of giving money directly to the poor, the state will give them "charitable organizations".
Article 2-sexies, paragraph 1 and following, provides that the tax on asset management happen in head to the subscriber, rather than the bottom, at the time of implementation. It is a real reform that eases further taxation of financial income as noted on the site .
Article 2, paragraph 4-Ii, takes resources to broadband access (30 million in funding already planned and approved by CIPE). To be devoted to digital (which cost rises obviously).
Article 2, paragraph 17-g provides that Italian post office may constitute a heritage for the pursuit of counter-mail, separate from the traditional postal activities. For some time the banks complain about the unfair competition of the Italian Post Office, which are given more tools to expand.
L’articolo 2, comma 17-duoddecies, sostiene che, ai fini delle legge che istituisce la Banca del Mezzogiorno, Poste possa “acquistare partecipazioni, anche di controllo, nel capitale di banche”.
Come si vede non si tratta di proroghe, ma di cambiamenti normativi di grandissimo rilievo, al di là di qualsiasi giudizio di merito.

OMNIBUS O TURBIDUS
Gli omnibus sono per certi versi fisiologici nella vita di tutti i parlamenti: uno strumento ovvio per costruire il consenso . Hanno però difetti gravi: difficile che provvedimenti che contengono disposizioni variegate e che devono essere approvati in tempi brevi siano esaminati con la dovuta attenzione (Parliament and public opinion). In short, lack of transparency . Add to this the fact that the text is a constant reference to the other paragraphs of other laws that refer to other paragraphs and other laws. So far hardly intelligible. In defiance of the principle established by law by the Minister for Simplification of legislation that every reference to other rules contained in laws, as well as regulations, decrees or circulars issued by the government, "must at the same state, either in full or in form concise and clear understanding of the text or the matter to which the provisions relate, or the principle contained in the rules which the reader that they intend to call ".
is a picture worsened, then the mode of adoption: in our case, the maxi-amendment to the Senate and vote of confidence. But the increasing loss of Parliament's role in the production of legislation is inevitable assault on the few trains that go by, and for which there is no certainty that reach their destination. Of course, all things considered, we find ourselves with an Act of stability and a streamlined Milleproroghe fat. Not that we have won.
