Home World Map Rankings Currency Converter Countries from A to Z A B C D ... Italy (Notes) Italy - Government and Political Conditions (Notes) GOVERNMENT Italy has been a democratic republic since June 2, 1946, when the monarchy was abolished by popular referendum. The constitution was promulgated on January 1, 1948. The Italian state is centralized. The prefect of each of the provinces is appointed by and answerable to the central government. In addition to the provinces, the constitution provides for 20 regions with limited governing powers. Five regionsSardinia, Sicily, Trentino-Alto Adige, Valle d'Aosta, and Friuli-Venezia Giuliafunction with special autonomy statutes. The other 15 regions were established in 1970 and vote for regional 'councils.' The establishment of regional governments throughout Italy has brought some decentralization to the national governmental machinery, and recent governments have devolved further powers to the regions. However, many regional governments, particularly in the north of Italy, are seeking additional powers. The 1948 constitution established a bicameral parliament (Chamber of Deputies and Senate), a separate judiciary, and an executive branch composed of a Council of Ministers (cabinet), headed by the president of the council (prime minister). The president of the republic is elected for 7 years by the parliament sitting jointly with a small number of regional delegates. The president nominates the prime minister, who chooses the other ministers. The Council of Ministersin practice composed mostly of members of parliamentmust retain the confidence of both houses.

93. Italy - Government And Employers Agree On Training Strategies In the case of continuing training, which has traditionally been neglected in italy,the government believes that it should be left to the individual trade http://www2.trainingvillage.gr/download/Cinfo/Cinfo398/C38H3EN.html

No. 3/1998 Italy Government and employers agree on training strategies At a summit meeting held between the Government and Confindustria (Italian employer's federation) in April, an assessment was made of the training policies, which it is intended to pursue. In the case of continuing training, which has traditionally been neglected in Italy, the government believes that it should be left to the individual trade associations and collective agreement renewals at present being negotiated to transform these policies into opportunities. Nevertheless, it has confirmed that various measures to promote the supply of training, including the possibility to deduct expenditures from taxes are under consideration. A typically Italian problem is that of school drop-outs. Today 5% of students do not finish even their compulsory schooling at 14 years of age. Only 10% obtain a higher education degree while 50% stop after their upper secondary school-leaving certificate and 25% do not go beyond the qualification obtained from vocational training provided by regional authorities. The government therefore wishes to take action in various directions: an observatory on early school-leavers
