The Court of Auditors rejects the privatization of Cagliari airport and the creation of the holding company of the Sardinian airports : the regional control section today notified the Chamber of Commerce of the capital - which controls 93% of Sogaer - of the negative opinion on the resolution of the Chamber of Commerce council which gave the green light to the integration operation with the other airports on the island.

The project involves the capital increase of Ligantia, the company that already holds the majority of Geasar (Olbia) and Soegaal (Alghero), through the contribution of Sogaer shares. According to the Court of Auditors there are several reasons for not approving the plan: first of all it would not respect the institutional purposes "limited to the territorial context" of the Chamber of Commerce. In short: by participating in the holding the public body would give life to an operation that goes beyond the borders of the territory of competence, that of Cagliari and Oristano .

But the accounting judiciary expresses doubts about the financial sustainability of the operation : «The documentation examined does not appear suitable to support with reasonable and adequate probability» a favorable opinion.
