Overview

• Minister Giancarlo Giorgetti revived plans to address structural gaps in municipal and regional tax recovery with a new public entity distinct yet integrated with the Revenue Agency-Riscossione
• The entity would feature specialized personnel, leverage national economies of scale and tap existing tax data to boost local authorities’ financial autonomy
• An advanced IT infrastructure interoperable with Sogei and PagoPA would enable precise debtor profiling and real-time monitoring of collection activities
• The proposal, now before the parliamentary Federalism Fiscal Commission, is slated for legal framing by Q1 2026 and operational rollout across municipalities and regions in 2027
• The government is also exploring incentives to strengthen private-sector tax collectors as part of a broader federalism reform to balance local fiscal responsibilities
