Reactivated the frank point of the port of Venice



I interministerial decree 22 March 2013, published on the "Gazette" 6th April, ridetermina the marking out of the frank point of Venice authorizing some the displacement and the blowup inside of the customs spaces of the commercial port of Marghera, on an area of about 8.080 square metres placed to the income of the port, between the passage of via of the Commerce and the Nitrogen.

Remembering that the Venetian frank point, transferred in 1993 from the Marine one to Marghera, was put in parenthesis in the period of development of traffics, harbour and, mostly intracomunitari and therefore internal to the European customs area, the Harbour Authority of Venice, that it has carried to term the process of rilocalizzazione and revitalization of the frank point in close collaboration with the Customs Authority, it has not emphasized that draft of "one of single the four free points (with Trieste - to which ulterior privileges from the international treatys are guaranteed - Genoa and Gioia Tauro) today recognized from the European Union".

"Today that the Italian economy, and of the northeast in particular - has found the harbour agency - strongly "is canted" on traffics with non-EU destinations and origins, the guaranteed special customs regimes to the free points can play a not secondary role in favoring the interchange with the side south of the Mediterranean, from Morocco to Turkey, and with beyond Suez and beyond Gibraltar".

Now the Harbour Authority will complete the participations necessary beginning from to return the frank point of Venice totally operating the next summer.

While yesterday in the lagoon city, near congress the entrance hall of the Venice Passenger terminal (VTP), Club Port of Venice has been discussed about the technical-nautical services in the Italian ports in an organized encounter from the The International Propeller to which they have participated the president of the Venetian Harbour Authority, Paolo Costa, the commander of the Marine Direction of Veneto and the Harbour office of Venice, admiral Tiberio Piattelli, the president of Federagenti, Michele Pappalardo, to the presence of beyond 90 operators between which the presidents of society of towing, ormeggiatori, pilots and terminalisti.

"The wide debate, anticipated from the visit to the newest systems for handling of the crocieristi realized in the lagoon terminal from the VTP Engineering with innovative system MBT (Multipurpose Boarding Tower) - Massimo Bernardo has declared, president of Propeller of Venice, in occasion of the encounter - has demonstrated once again as acquired bureaucracy and monopolies in the years not only turn out harmful to the competitiveness of our harbour system from the economic point of view but, above all, for the uncertainty that reigns sovereign between who, as the president of the lagoon port, it asks that Harbour Authorities and Marine Authorities are the public institutions () to to define rates and modality of the services and who instead entrusts to confronts and to the concertazione in the "tables of job" the solution of raveled "the busillis"". Bernardo has found that the "arm-wrestle" is therefore destined to continue also after the several resources to the REGIONAL ADMINISTRATIVE COURT while, in a more and more trained market, sentences from the magistracy for being able attend to say the word fine to this raveled situation that plays between the role of Public Administration and the private concessionaire of such services.

In this context the newly elected president of Federagenti, Michele Pappalardo, online with how much declaring from president of Confitarma d' Amico, has among other things wished that he does not give rise myself to the ulterior distributing resources and that comes immediately therefore reopened confronts responsible between and users of the services, with precise objectives and times, face to the location of proposals that, in the respect of the national and communitarian norms, ports to new criteria and mechanisms of formation and review of the rates of towing and harbour pilotage. "We find ourselves - it has emphasized Pappalardo - in a particular moment of our economy. The market is anticipated more and more difficult and trained. We have already remarkable a gap to overwhelm for the insufficient competitiveness of our ports in confronts of ours competitors is European that North African. We cannot afford to run also the risk to see from the evening to the morning and for an order of justice a system that "give the all ordered" steps the "all free one"".

By part its admiral Piattelli, recalling himself to codicil 1 second of the art.14 of the law 84/94 that regards the technical-nautical services of pilotage, towing, mooring and battellaggio, defined "services of general interest actions to guarantee in the ports, where is instituted, safety of navigation and the landing place", he has observed that in the future provision of liberalization they would have themselves to be gone to reform, in fact, the sun rules of access to the supply of the services introducing competitive mechanisms between the distributing aspirants of the services limiting, in short, successively to a single subject the distribution of the service. For how much it concerns instead the tariff aspects, "firm remaining the appraisals of the competent head office of the ministry of Infrastructures and the Transports - it has continued the admiral - one considers that the so-called system "installments of return", intended as relationship between the yield who is generated by an investment and the correspondent invested sum, expressed as percentage of the capital that is employed, turns out the system that more better it contemplates to the requirement of the user with those of the supplier of the service not sottacendo the circumstance that the same rates are determined and renewed in conflicting with all the interested parts. Against - it has concluded Clay pigeons - the system from more parts proposed of the "price CAP", with which the increase of the rates cannot exceed a determined deliberate value removing to inflation rate on the consumer goods a minimal quota increase of the productivity, would force the enterprise, in the current context, to the minimizzazione of the costs that would go to record, unavoidably, on the quality of the lend service".
