The government is not fleeing
Parliament nor deferring to report on the case of freed Libyan
general Osama Almasri and Justice Minister Carlo Nordio along
with Interior Minister Matteo Piantedosi will be able to provide
adequate answers to MPs, the Minister for Relations with
Parliament Luca Ciriani said Tuesday.
Earlier, parliamentary sources announced that Nordio and
Piantedosi will be reporting to the Lower House at 12:15 on
Wednesday.
"The government is not fleeing Parliament, there is no dilatory
intention", the report will be given by "two very important
ministers" who will be "able to provide adequate answers", said
Ciriani.
Asked about Premier Giorgia Meloni personally referring to
Parliament on a separate occasion, as repeatedly requested by
the centre-left opposition, Ciriani replied: "There are two
ministers who are able to guarantee utmost information".
Meanwhile, parliamentary sources said the House session will not
be broadcast live on television, a decision taken during a
meeting of party whips.
The live broadcast, requested by opposition members, needs a
unanimous vote to be approved.
Ciriani said "someone in the majority did not agree" with the
decision.
