After the briefing on Hormuz by the ministers Antonio Tajani and Guido Crosetto, who confirmed the departure of two mine-hunting ships to Djibouti (they will only land in Hormuz once the international mission has been approved, the truce is stable, and the House has voted), it is Giorgia Meloni's turn to face the parliamentary arena.
Nuclear, enabling act by summer
"I take this opportunity to say that by the summer the enabling law will be adopted, the implementing decrees will be adopted, and the legal framework necessary for the resumption of nuclear production in Italia will be completed," the Prime Minister told Premier Time in the Senate, responding to a question by Carlo Calenda (Action) on the establishment of a control room to address the country's strategic priorities.
Director's Office? "I was accused of wanting catwalks."
A proposal to which Meloni does not close, praising Calenda's constructive attitude, but also recalling that 'when we have tried so far to open up to confrontation with the oppositions, the response has not been one of willingness. At the beginning of the conflict in Iran,' he stressed, 'I was told that they wanted to organise catwalks. The government's doors would be open to anyone willing to put national interest before party interests'.
The heated exchange with Renzi: 'Offences and insults here'
The harshest exchange took place with Matteo Renzi (Iv), who pressed her on the Giuli case, on the House Plan, asking her about the involvement of Mario Abbadessa, a "private entity that participates without any tender", on a Government "not up to the task" and on the next steps to be taken. To him the premier, after denouncing that "every time you come here after accusations and insults there is objectively little to talk about", says she wants to continue working on three priorities: strengthening wages and purchasing power, giving incentives to companies that hire and invest, and supporting families and the birth rate.
Coming news on ZES and pension fund investments
Then he announces the will to accelerate the law for nuclear power, and the extension of the single ZES of Southern Italy to the entire national territory, for the simplification part. as well as the strengthening of the mechanisms already introduced 'to increase the investments of pension funds in the real economy of Italy because something is not working if there are 260 billion collected from the Italians of which 40 billion are only invested in Italia'. As for the NRP, he reports expenditure as of 31 March 2026: '117 billion certified expenditure plus 24 billion in financial instruments. I would say that we have done a good job'.
