- Proposal of the Helvetic federal Council in order to adapt the destined resources to the railway infrastructure
-
- It will be centralized on a new Bottom for the railway infrastructure
-
 The Helvetic federal Council will up to now propose to the Parliament the confirmation of the formulation adopted for the financing of the railway infrastructure showing also an adaptation of the total resources through the increase of the contributions distributed from the Confederation, the Districts and the pendular ones.-
- The proposal of the Swiss government is centralized on the plan "Financing and widening of railway infrastructure" (FAIF) with which it intends in the long term to guarantee the financing of the exercise of the rail shipment, of the maintenance of the quality of the services and the widening of the railway infrastructure. Such plan will be subordinate to popular referendum as controprogetto to the initiative "For public transports" introduced from the ATA (Association Traffic and Atmosphere), that it previews a deep transfer to the railroad of the destined ones to the road.
-
- The federal Council has announced the outcomes of a consultation on own plan FAIF, from which it has turned out that the majority has been expressed in decidedly favorable way on the initiative and is estimated positively, in particular, the financing of the infrastructure through a bottom, the ulterior employment of the current resources financial institutions and the widening of the railway net based on the potenziamento of the abilities rather than on the ulterior reduction of the times of distance. Instead they have collected some critics - she has specified the executive - the employment to indeterminate time of the coming resources from the tax on mineral oils and the economic capacity of the phase of widening of the railway infrastructure to 2025
(
of 1° April 2011), considered insufficient from several atmospheres.-
- _the proposal that the Council the federal subject to the Parliament, that come elaborate by the department the federal of the Atmosphere, transport, energy and communication (Datec), be centralize on a a new Bottom for the infrastructure the railway (FInFer), that have last indeterminate, in which meet resource that current feed the Bottom for the financing of the great plan railway (Deep ftp), that is the Tax on the Traffic Heavy Proportion to the Performance (TTPCP) and the one per thousand of the VAT to time indeterminate and - fixed-term, that is probably until the 2030 - the return coming from the tax on the oil mineral (currently pairs to approximately 310 million franchi). The Council has anticipated that, in order to avoid disparity of treatment between road and railroad, it will come among other things estimated the creation of a bottom ad hoc for the carrier road.
-
- Moreover the governmental proposal previews an increase of deep the federal pairs to 100 million franchi Swiss, in order to reach a total of 2,3 billion annual. The quota the Confederation - it has explained the Council - will also come indexed to 100% of the economic increase (GDP) and in this way the annual payments of the Confederation will increase clearly so much so that, beginning from 2025, the Confederation will pour per year 290 million franchi in more to the FInFer. The ulterior necessary resources to the railway infrastructure will beginning from come from an increase of the price of the traces pairs to 100 million franchi 2017 in addition to the increase of 200 million franchi already previewed for 2013, that the cover of the marginal costs prescribed from the law will allow.
-
- The federal Council will propose also to adopt the maximum limit for the deduction of the transport costs from the directed federal tax instead of the forfetizzazione. In future the pendular ones will be able to deduct to maximum 3,000 franchi Swiss for the transport costs, that they will have moreover to be proven. The Districts will be free to choose the modalities of introduction of such deduction in the respective fiscal systems.
-
- Also the cantonal economic participation will endure a modification: upon request of the Districts a new system will be developed based on which they will be called to altogether pour a annual additional amount pairs to approximately 200 million franchi Swiss.
-
- For how much it concerns the phase of widening of the railway infrastructure to 2025, in the proposal the federal Council will confirm the intention to maintain the volume of resources, the proposed pairs to 3,5 billion franchi Swiss, let alone plans. Although during consultation an increment of the resources to 5-6 is demanded billions of franchi - the executive has explained - the government will not propose such widening of the deep ones in consideration of the impossibility to retrieve other financings.
