Recovery, Carfagna: “Funds bound by law in the South for approximately 82 billion”

“The NRP provides for the allocation to the southern regions of 40% of the funds of the entire program, a value higher than the percentage of the resident population and the GDP generated by the South: this is the first time this has happened and it is the first time that we have succeeded. to bind by law such a large share to the South, about 82 billion euros, so that it will no longer happen as in the past that resources allocated for the South are then diverted elsewhere “. This was underlined by the Minister for the South and territorial cohesion Mara Carfagna, speaking at the fourteenth edition of the Ey Digital summit which opened today in Rome with a focus on the South. The South “does not need other unfinished works, it already has too many of them and they are authentic monuments to waste and perhaps a little presumptuous planning”, observed the minister. “The simulations tell us that if we will be able to implement the plan in the coming 5 years the GDP of the South will grow by 24% more than the value of 2020 “he explained. And the relaunch of the South” is an absolutely necessary condition for a true and lasting recovery of the country “, underlined the minister:” All indicators tell us that after the pandemic, Italy can start up again with enthusiasm only if the South restarts “.
