Overview
- Scorza announced his irrevocable resignation in a video on social media and, according to Italian reports, urged his fellow board members to do the same.
- He denies wrongdoing and says he is under investigation for episodes including an official dinner charged on the authority’s card and receipt of an Ita Airways executive card.
- All four members of the collegio, including president Pasquale Stanzione, are under inquiry by the Rome prosecutor’s office for corruption and embezzlement after searches of the authority’s Rome offices and their homes in Rome, Turin, Florence and Salerno.
- Investigators cite allegedly lax management of public money, sharply higher representation expenses reported around €400,000 in 2024, and potential conflicts tied to decisions involving Meta and Ita Airways, with Scorza’s past ties to law firm E‑Lex under scrutiny.
- The authority can continue to deliberate with three members, political calls for broader resignations persist, a Corte dei Conti review is possible, and new material from Rai’s Report is expected to be broadcast.
