(ANSA) - Rome, February 15 - Talks are ongoing between the
government coalition partners, the 5-Star Movement (M5S) and the
League, over who should replace Tito Boeri at the helm of
pensions and social security agency INPS.
The term of Boeri, who has been a vocal critic of the
government's policies, expires on Saturday.
On Friday there were reports that an agreement was reached
for Mauro Nori, a former INPS official and an advisor to Economy
Minister Giovanni Tria, to get the nod.
But Regional Affairs Undersecretary and M5S member Stefano
Buffagni said Friday that this hypothesis could be "pensioned
off".
