Overview
- M5S deputies displayed Fabio Rampelli’s alleged draft order of the day in session, accusing it of proposing to raise deputies’ salaries and reinstate vitalizi.
- Rampelli insists no such proposal was ever formally filed and says the text was an informal measure to improve conditions for former administrative staff.
- The disputed text reportedly invited the Chamber’s presiding bodies to engage with the Senate on harmonizing economic treatment after senators retained €1,000 higher monthly pay and lifetime annuities.
- M5S vice president Michele Gubitosa and deputy Gilda Sportiello have repeatedly pressed the issue, demanding the draft’s official registration or withdrawal.
- The confrontation highlights broader debates over transparency, parliamentary privileges and institutional parity within Italy’s bicameral legislature.
