One hundred and thirty-eight thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine. In figures: 138,999. These are the euros that Ares has put on the plate for « the professional technical support to the Rup for the functional feasibility study for the reorganization and sizing of the functions of the "Brotzu" hospitals of the Arnas and the "Oncological-Businco" hospital for the unification in a single plexus". Translated: money to be given to an external professional to understand how and where the new hospital in Cagliari can be built, which is fueling strong tensions in the majority that governs the Region.
The controversies divide the representatives of the centre-right into the regional council. Meanwhile, the administrative machine does not stop. The resolution of the council of Villa Devoto, on June 1st, entrusted the regional health agency with the task of studying the solutions for Cagliari and for the Sulcis Iglesiente (here the CTO of Iglesias and Sirai of Carbonia will be merged). The measure was only made public in recent days. On 19 June, the general manager of Ares, Annamaria Tomasella, entrusted the first assignment: Giampiero Testoni, who in the company holds the role of director of the complex Energy management and centralized logistics services management structure, was appointed responsible for the procedure which will lead to the feasibility study.
And it is he, after a few days, who signs the determination of almost 140 thousand euros (maximum amount payable, not necessarily to be spent all) «for the assignment of a professional assignment aimed at preparing the feasibility study for the realization of the new hospital unit in the city of Cagliari through direct negotiation on the MePA portal".
The provision states that it is necessary "to proceed with urgency and speed". It is a "direct assignment even without consulting several economic operators".
