The Harbour Committee of Livorno unanimously gives the green light to the economic support to the Agency for the Job in Porto
Sent back on 28 July the reunion on the cession of the quotas Porto 2000
July 15, 2014

Today the Harbour Committee of Livorno has approved of unanimously a deliberation that will allow with the Harbour Authority to inject 437 thousand euros in the cases of the Agency for the Job in Port (ALP), the only subject authorized in the Leighorn port to supply labor during the job peaks, of which 210 thousand in order to supply to the formation requirements and other 227 thousand as incentive to the retirement or the voluntary exodus.

The Harbour Authority has remembered that to return this solution possible it is codicil 15 second of art. the 17 of law 84/94, instrument that gives way to the harbour agencies to not more assign to the supplier agencies of temporary job of 15% of the entrances own deriving from the taxes at the expense of the cargo.

The destined figures could be lavished alone on condition that the force job of the ALP is reduced of 5%. This - it has explained the authority harbour - means a possible early retirement and the ricollocazione in port of others two workers, while eventual ricollocamenti of staff ALP however will second be managed the modalities already defined by the Pact for the which signed job on 19 October of 2012 between the trade-union acronyms and the representatives of Assoterminal, Confindustria and Assimprese.

Moreover the Harbour Committee has supplied to the update of the rates corresponded to art. the 17 against the supply of temporary job to the harbour enterprises, rates that were blocked by 2009. The harbour agency has specified that the increase, pairs to +12.2% junior clerk to the every day rate of eight hours (33 euros to the hour), will go to alleviate the working conditions of the 63 dependent of the ALP, whose turns effectively worked have been reduced from 18 thousand demanded of 2008 to the eight thousand one of 2012-2013 (11,2 turns for every worker). Too much little, in short - it has found the harbour authority - for a society that gives 2009 today it has had to support always greater burdens deriving from contractual increases (+24% in five years) and that in 2013 it has closed the budget in loss, eroding almost all the share capital.

The Harbour Committee of Livorno has approved of unanimously also the update of the regulations for the starter of long period for various performances of temporary job from those every day ones, with reference to periods of four renewable months from time to time. The 33 every day euros to the hour are reduced so to 31,52 euros if the dependent of the ALP are used in order at least a month, come down to 30,93 for two months, 30,33 for three months and 29,73 euros for four months.

In occasion of the today's reunion the Harbour Authority has introduced a first consuntivo budget of the Operations plan Triennial, which reached by now half of own period of validity and completed more than to 50%, with beyond 14 opened yards, five works in advanced phase of engaged planning and almost 60 million euros. "State of the art of its performance - he has emphasized the general secretary of the harbour agency, Massimo Provinciali - demonstrates to us that from on 13 November of 2012, by when that is the POT is approved of, we have not remained arrest warrants but we have proceeded to open and, sometimes to close, important games for the development of the port".

"The picture in the entirety - the president of the authority has confirmed, Giuliano Gallanti - is positive much. We have as soon as adjudicated the work of escavo of the Side North of the Italy Pier, while on 7 July we have signed the contract for the realization of the work of Microtunnel. Moreover, now that the Tuscany Dock is not more Until, we will be able to begin to dredge of the backdrops without to pass from the ministry of the Atmosphere. We only wait for that the competent offices of the Region are ready".

The harbour agency has remembered that between the infrastructural works already cantierate or about to planning they figure also the work of consolidation of the first Overwhelmed Bathtub of, the whose participation is previewed for 2015, but whose proposed progettuale it could soon be subordinate to the approval of the Region, and those relative ones to the second bathtub of control, whose first two sottobacini they are already available and they will be used in order to receive the material dredged to the side north of the Italy Pier (both the sottounità have the control ability pairs to a third party of 1,5 million the cubic metres of material that the new infrastructure will be able to receive once completed). "The two bathtubs of overwhelmed - it has specified Gallanti - I am of fundamental importance for the future of the port, as propedeutiche to the realization of the Europe Platform". According to the president of the Harbour Authority, the widening to sea of the Leighorn port of call, with the realization of two terminals dedicated to the container and the Freeways of the Sea, will afford to Livorno to make that quality jump that all expect: "the Europe Dock - it has observed Gallanti - is not a futuribile hypothesis but an infrastructure in order to realize which wants solid projects to us and solid investments". These last ones - it has specified - could arrive from the European Investment Bank (EIB) and from Cassa Warehouses and Loans: "in the past few months - Gallanti has announced - we have had various contacts with both the institutions, than us they have shown with tangible signs their interest for the great works that we intend to realize. To this point we must only wait for that the Portuale Town development plan definitively is approved of".

With respect to the iter of the Portuale Town development plan, that he must still exceed the sieve of the Higher council of the Public works and therefore to receive the authorization of the Tuscany Region, Provincial he has clarified that he will not endure too many delays and that the tabellino of march will be respected, with the fixed goal for september: "the elements of innovations contained in the Town development plan - it has evidenced the general secretary - are so innovative that have induced the CSLPP to start on a national level a review of the lines guide for the editing of the PRP. I believe that to be taken in innovation consideration for example must be for us and for the city pride reason. We are trusting about the good outcome of the appraisals of the state technical organ and we expect also from the Municipality the maximum collaboration because varying to the structural plan is approved of as soon as possible. In bottom we have both a common objective: the pr0sperity of the port of Livorno".

In the course of the today's reunion also he is made the point on the dredgings and the leader in charge of the Harbour Authority, Giovanni Motta, has confirmed that they are made of the steps forward: almost all the previewed work or is adjudicated (Italy Pier side north) or already planned (on the restoration of the backdrops of the Tuscany Dock and on the increase of the access channel, already the characterizations of the backdrops are executed). On others two fundamental works already are prepared the notices of confidence of the activities of characterization of the backdrops: the more important is that of the increase of the mouth south of the port, fundamental for the income of the ships in the Leighorn port of call. Certainly, on the front of the escavi - it has said Root ball - "in trusting we are attended that the Region manages the actions that discipline the modalities of management of the dredging activities, but on this point we have already received from Florence more than a concrete engagement to melt the knot of the deperimetrazione Until of the port of Livorno".

At last in the course of the reunion the president of the harbour agency has decided, upon request of the mayor of Livorno, Filippo Nogarin, as a result of the mandate received yesterday from the Town council after a mediation in the Conference of the group leaders, to on 28 July send back the next reunion of the Harbour Committee previewed previously for thursday, for giving way to the mayor, to the committee and the members of the competent consiliari commission, to develop a more groundbreaking reflection on a topic that continue to magnetize the attention of prints and of the citizenship: the cession of the quotas Porto 2000. The harbour agency has announced that the decision is accepted by the members of the Committee, even if various they have been the underlines for the umpteenth dismissal of a reunion that would be due initially to carry out the 8 July. The Harbour Authority has specified to have received the demand bearing in mind the necessity to involve the mayor in a merit argument on the study of KPMG. However - it has remembered the harbour agency - the reunion of the 17 did not preview that some type of formal decision was assumed: in fact, the issue of the cession of the quotas the society that to Livorno manages the cruises already was faced to July of 2011 and resolve through the approval of a deliberation that it gave sent to the president of the harbour authority to respect it law obligation and to come down under 50% of the quotas.
