Piantedosi gave assurances on changing rave law - unions

(ANSA) - ROME, NOV 4 - Interior Minister Matteo Piantedosi has given assurances on changing a controversially tough new anti-rave decree, Italy's three big union federations said after their first meeting with the new minister Friday.
    After voicing "concern and perplexity" on the new package of measures, the union said they had received "reassurances" that it would not be extended to union demonstrations, CGIL, CISL and UIL said.
    The said the clarification that protest rights would not be affected would be inserted into the text of the decree during its passage through parliament.
    But CIGL leader Maurizio Landini said the rave law should in any case be withdrawn because the government already had enough powers and measures to act against illegal raves.
