"La legge Bassanini e le autonomie locali"
Law 127/97, the so-called Bassanini law 2, modifies, in no small measure, the nature of local bodies, in anticipation of the organic draft law, announced by the Ministry of the Interior.
The modifications introduced, which relate to the competence both of the organs both of the political government and of the bureaucracy, to accounting, to business organization, to the organization of offices and services, to the status of secretaries and lastly to controls, are intended to strengthen local autonomy.
Nonetheless, this project has not always been pursued coherently, so that a number of the norms contained in the Bassanini law 2 have had the opposite effect, or have at least reintroduced a sort of neocentralism in disguise, located no longer in the government but in parliament.
Along with this criticism, it is possible to advance another, of a more general nature. If regions, provinces and communes constitute a single unit, the region should have been delegated powers to intervene in organization of local authorities.
Otherwise, the result is the creation of a two-fold autonomy: one regional, the other subregional, with parliament, in its neocentralist role, functioning as guarantor of the autonomy of comunes and provinces with respect to the region.
