San Marino. Retired former frontier workers, Gianluca Montanari (Cdls): “Now we need concrete solutions”
A concrete intervention against the “expensive bills”, the careful evaluation of the economic-policy also in the light of the situation of the provisions under discussion in the Great and General Council, the relaunch of an updated income policy and the renewal of the last expired contracts.
These are the main themes at the heart of the Confederal Council of the Democratic Confederation of San Marino Workers on the agenda for the morning of Thursday 19 January in the meeting room of the unitary trade union center in Domagnano.
In view of the Cdls parliamentarian, reports a note from the same San Marino union, the general secretary Gianluca Montanari go back on question of the pensions of the 2,300 former frontier workers decimated by double taxation.
And it does so in the light of the approval of the agenda, presented by the honorable Jacopo Morrone, which commits the Italian government to include the fixed tax rate of 5% also in the cross-border pensions of San Marino.
Taxation already foreseen for those of the Italian pensioners who have worked in the Principality of Monaco and in Switzerland.
“The approval of the agenda is a first step that now needs a concrete outlet with the presentation in Parliament of an amendment accompanied by the necessary financial backing”, says the secretary of the CDLS, underlining the need to get out of this ” intolerable and unfair treatment” also through a definitive clarification between the two States: “The diplomatic-normative stalemate on the fiscal power of pension income, a stalemate that has lasted since 2014 after the signing of the bilateral convention against double taxation, must be overcome as soon as possible” .
