On 10 June, a few days ago, the House confidence in the government approved the bill on Alfano to limit interceptions. The result of the vote has sparked an uproar of controversy and criticism, with good reason add. The point of the battle concerns the apparent conflict with the rules of art. 21 of the Constitution provides for freedom of the press. The bill provides for penalties for journalists found guilty of any violation of the prohibitions heavy provided. In practice, the prohibition of disseminating information on any scandal until the end of the process (here in Italy usually does not last long ...), the judicial reporting, resumed after the fascism, no more. Someone bitterly observes that "the scandal of the parties in Sardinia has accelerated the need for Berlusconi's majority to close the game with journalists and judges and remove from the agenda that remains the public debate on the scandals of a head of government that makes us the laughing stock of the united Europe ". L ' National Association of Magistrates produced a document entitled" the death of justice Criminal in Italy, "because" the rules on wiretapping prevent the police and the judiciary to identify the perpetrators of serious crimes ... This is a proposal that does not introduce the reforms needed to ensure the efficiency of the process, but also inserts new, unnecessary formalism, which will lead to a further extension of time in the process. The resulting unreasonable period of too many trials results in fact the denial of fundamental rights and new forms of private justice ".
Vera Lamonica , confederal secretary Cigl , speaks of a" boon to the mafia and lawlessness. " Lorenzo del Boca, Enzo Iacopino, president and secretary of the National Council of journalists have described the draft law a "monster that cripples the journalists." The Secretary guidizio Fnsi (National Italian Press Federation ), Franco Siddi is that this vote is a very bad news for Italy, for information, for its autonomy violently carved by a wall of prohibition order to prevent publication of news that matter to the civic health. "FNSI, together with the Fieg (Italian Federation of Newspaper Publishers ), has drafted a appeal," duty to inform - right to know " to Parliament, all political forces and the public.
with quotes from experts this could fill a dozen post (quiet, I will not), but I do not think we need to convince us of the fact by competent figures that there is something profoundly wrong with what's going on. Di Pietro said, "are the squares, citizens, civil disobedience." petitions and demonstrations are being organized in many are moving. In particular, the association Article 21, through its website , ask all the political forces and associations to promote, during the debate in the Senate (where he would spend the text passed by the House), a national event dedicated to protection of constitutional values. It would be nice to believe that "the streets and citizens" was still of some, but from my meager experience, I fear that is not true at all.
