Overview
- Senator Matteo Gelmetti withdrew the transport-strike amendment and said he will pursue a standalone, more detailed bill on the issue.
- The scrapped proposal would have required transport workers to declare in writing, seven days in advance, an irrevocable intention to strike, a move unions condemned as undermining a constitutional right.
- A separate FdI amendment seeks to reopen the 2003 building sanatoria to regularize works compliant with urban plans as of 31 March 2003, excluding protected areas and unsafe structures.
- Though formally nationwide, the amnesty push is widely viewed as targeting unresolved cases in Campania ahead of regional elections, drawing opposition accusations of vote-seeking and prompting coalition caution from Antonio Tajani to proceed case by case.
- The budget bill has 5,742 amendments, with only 414 to be prioritized by 18 November; the condono measure remains filed and could advance if it makes that shortlist.
