Overview
- Two amendments from Forza Italia’s Claudio Lotito and Noi Moderati’s Mariastella Gelmini propose €1,500 per child for families with ISEE below €30,000 who enroll children in paritarie.
- The estimated fiscal cost is about €20 million, and the proposal is included in the ongoing budget debate without approval.
- The measure reprises a plan withdrawn last year, when a similar proposal carried a higher ISEE threshold of €40,000.
- Panorama reports the voucher would start in 2026, be means‑tested on a sliding scale by the Education Ministry, and be combinable with regional support up to €5,000 per family.
- M5S and AVS leaders criticize the proposal as diverting resources from public schools and as contravening Article 33 of the Constitution.
