The Council of Ministers unanimously approved the constitutional reform bill.
It is a “constitutional reform that introduces the direct election of the prime minister and guarantees two objectives that we have been committed to achieving from the beginning: the right of citizens to decide who governs them, putting an end to setbacks, palace games and “technical” or “above citizens” governments, said the prime minister Giorgia Meloni At the press conference. The other objective is to “guarantee that those elected by the people govern” with “stability.”
“In the last 75 years of republican history we have had 68 governments with an average duration of a year and a half. This is the mother of all the reforms that can be made in Italy because if we take a step back and look at the last 20 years we have had 12 prime ministers,” Meloni highlighted. “When governments return home after a year and a half there is a weakness. I think it is a fundamental reform. It is a priority and precisely because we are stable and strong we have the responsibility to take advantage of this opportunity and leave something to this nation.” that can solve its structural problems”.

“What does not work in the system is the legislative horizon”, which is too short: therefore “current spending is favored more than investments.” Besides “The lack of stability has created a problem of international credibilityin our conversations,” said Meloni.
“The role of the President of the Republic is one of absolute guarantee and we have decided not to touch his powers.except the role of the Prime Minister,” who is elected,” continued Meloni.
“There was an exchange with the President of the Republic and with positions, as always happens with important measures of this type,” said the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister elected directly by the citizens, then, added Meloni, “must always respect the government program for which he has been elected.” .

“I was in favor” of the “simul simul” solution, immediately returning to the polls in case of lack of confidence. Then a solution was chosen that “would allow in extreme cases to maintain the possibility of ending the legislature. For me it is a solution that is still good, but if Parliament wanted to think” about the first option “it would not find my opposition.” This was stated by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni at a press conference after the Council meeting on constitutional reform.
