“They are ready indemnities ”For the categories that will be most penalized by the new Prime Minister's Decree: the prime minister Giuseppe Conte he wanted to reassure the Italians during the live press conference on Facebook. In particular, he wanted to reassure the commercial categories particularly affected by the new restrictive measures to contain the pandemic: culture (theaters, cinemas, museums), sports (gyms and swimming pools) and obviously restaurants.

"The refreshments will arrive directly on the current account of the interested parties by bank transfer from the revenue agency," said the prime minister at a press conference. In addition, among the various measures announced, there is the confirmation of non-repayable contributions, the cancellation of the second Imu installment and the confirmation of the redundancy fund. In addition, Conte also announced unspecified measures to support the agri-food chain, which will be severely hit by the closure of the restaurants. Measures that will come into force, says the prime minister, as soon as possible, probably as early as November.

To return to closing at 6pm, the prime minister specified that restaurants, bars and pastry shops will be able to continue after that hour with the delivery and home delivery systems.

Conte also spoke of the difficult dialogue with the Regions, who were asking to delay the closure of bars and restaurants by a few hours. "Up to now we have followed a strategy that has allowed the Regions to adopt restrictive measures in correspondence with the most critical areas, in the name of maximum flexibility", explained Giuseppe Conte entering into the merits of the "arm wrestling" of which they became protagonists local and national institutions in the past few hours, "but the data we are facing show that the pandemic is spreading uniformly throughout the territory, so government intervention is deemed necessary".

“We thought that more than the strategy of a curfew at night, it was useful to face those situations in which inevitable gatherings are created: bars, restaurants, wine bars, pubs. This is why we already intervene at 6 pm, I understand that there will be discomfort, but I repeat that we have at the same time defined support measures , concluded Conte on the subject.
