With 139 votes in favor, 16 against and 2 abstentions, the Senate approves the decree for the extension of the national state of emergency, for the containment of the spread of the epidemic and with the new rules on the green pass. The provision, which must be definitively approved by February 22, is now going to the Chamber.
In the hall of Palazzo Madama, the amendment to the text was also approved which will allow you to get on the means of connection to the Islands only with the "basic" Green Pass, not only for reasons strictly related to study and health , but also to return to own home. This was announced by the senator of the 5 Star Movement Pietro Lorefice, the first signatory of the amendment.
"I am very happy - the words of the parliamentarian - that the Senate has approved the amendment, at my first signature, which allows the use of means of transport to and from the islands of the Italian territory simply with the basic Green pass instead of the Green pass strengthened as up to now ".
"Let's give a concrete answer - adds Lorefice - to the citizens of the islands who in recent weeks had rightly reported a distortion that excessively limited the freedom of movement. This was an extremely relevant issue, on which the Parliament decided to overcome the opinion. contrary to the government ".
