Reducing taxes on fuel with a focus on diesel and a plan for 100,000 social homes in 10 years with €10 billion of investment, Georgia Meloni has announced.
In a period of intense pressures from a href=”https://tomanifesto.gr/akriveia”> on energy and housing, the Italian government is moving forward with targeted interventions that attempt to relieve both households and the real economy. The new package of measures announced by the Italian prime minister includes an extensionof the fuel tax relief, with a differentiated support for diesel oil due to the higher increase recorded in its price, as well as an ambitious long-term programme to address the housing crisis, which envisages the creation of tens of thousands of rent-controlled homes over the next decade, combined with billions of euros in public and private investments.
As announced tonight by Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, her government has decided to extend, for another three weeks, the reduction of state fuel taxes. “There is, however, a difference from the past. In recent weeks we have noticed a significant disparity, between the increase in the price of petrol and drive oil. Petrol increased by 6% and motor oil by 24%,” the Italian prime minister said.
Objectives
“We focused this extension mainly on motor oil, renewing the tax cut of 20 euro cents per litre. For gasoline, we limited it to 5 cents per liter, which corresponds to about 6% of the selling price,” Meloni added.
Referring, at the same time, to the problem of the increase in rental and sale prices of properties, in small and large Italian cities, the Italian prime minister said that “the main, new objective is to allocate 100.000 apartments in popular and price-controlled blocks of flats over the next ten years.”
“We will support this whole National Project with a sum of 10 billion euros, to which will be added private investment, which will multiply its total value,” concluded Giorgia Meloni.
