Fiom-CGIL, the sixth basin is of vital importance for the future of ship repairs in Genoa

The union replies to a series of questions the necessity for the former mayor superbacino places Pericu

In a speech on the Genoa newspaper "Il Secolo XIX" the former mayor of Genoa, Giuseppe Pericu asks if you really need to provide the port of Genoa of superbacino, or one sixth of the dry dock large enough to accommodate the most modern ships ( of 5 December 2007 and December 21 , 2010). In reflecting Pericu recalls the story of the incomplete and unused superbacino float was sold and left the port of Genoa in 1997 ( of July 28, 1997)

Pericu respond to the intervention of the Fiom-CGIL, which considers the sixth basin "of vital importance for the future of ship repair." Stressing that the questions raised by Pericu "are the same that he pays part of the city, which is to move those people who always questions about other things, the important thing is that nothing changes," To the question about the union reply jobs created pointing out that "are more than 3,500 who are now employed in ship repair naturally increased by a thousand workers in related activities planned for the ships of over 300 meters, 4,500 total jobs."

According to the Fiom-CGIL, "the former mayor does not know the confusion and ship repairs." "The workforce is highly specialized and in almost all Italian, if not Genoese ', said the union and states that the Croatian workers mentioned in the intervention of Pericu which was used in the past" welders were found to peak workload and unfortunately lacking professionalism on Genoa. "

To the question of the former mayor on the level of technology-related activities the sixth basin Fiom-CGIL notes that these activities "no longer play for a long time only repairs but also the global leader in buildings with boats."

In addition, the union added, "ask if the repair market is growing, it means not even read the newspapers Genoa. There is talk of an interest of companies to move from Genoa to Marseille? Why - explain the Fiom-CGIL - the future is on the big boats: Genoa continues to ask questions not to lose the future, but also the present. "

As costs and how to pay for themselves, the review notes that "the question should be turned directly to the Port Authority, the one subject that clearly says what he thinks."

"We are sorry - said the manager of the Ship Repair Fiom-CGIL, Joseph Durante - who so quickly forget the activities that are a point of excellence of this town, we seem to recall that the plan say the same architect. Today a new and prominent supporter is counted among those rooting for a move elsewhere, because this is about, if we do not start with the sixth basin.It is fair to say that in this part of town you need a project together, but Mr. Pericu because you ask today? And because the overall project already excludes something and someone? We are not excluding anyone, but they must be given different priorities, growth, employment, the places where wealth is produced and finally even the free time, and we are not interested in, more or less veiled, only real estate projects on areas which are to remain productive.
