Overview
- Lega and Forza Italia push to cancel the planned rise of the cedolare secca on short‑term rentals to 26%, with a 23% compromise under consideration and Forza Italia still urging a full rollback to 21% for the first property.
- The Senate Budget Committee set a ceiling of 400 signaled amendments, with filing due by Friday morning and party allocations to be defined next, including extra leeway for smaller groups.
- Vice minister Maurizio Leo cautions that broadening the latest tax‑debt settlement would strain finances, noting the current version costs €1.4 billion in 2026 and €700 million over time, while the Lega presses to include taxpayers with assessments for formal errors.
- Technical fixes being explored include making hyper and super depreciation structural in stages, easing or even scrapping new limits on tax credit compensations, excluding industrial holding companies from the 2‑point IRAP increase, and revisiting dividend taxation.
- The majority aims to bring the budget to the Senate floor around December 15 and secure final approval in the Chamber before Christmas, with senior figures expecting the process to culminate in a maxi‑amendment.
