«On healthcare, President Occhiuto, in the role of commissioner and in full synergy with the centre-right forces in the Regional Council, is doing an effective job which must be supported and adequately strengthened. So it is it cannot be ruled out that the League’s abstention in the Senate on an amendment for Calabrian healthcare was intended to hinder the extraordinary action implemented by President Occhiuto and the Calabrian centre-right to rationalize the regional health system”.
This was stated by the president of the Regional Council of Calabria Filippo Mancusocommissioner of the Calabria League. «In this sense – he continues – whether the episode was the result of a technical decision of the League aligned with the opinion of the Government or of the political dialectic which in some phases goes further, it should be noted that for us, above all and first of all, it is the interest of the Calabrians in having dignified healthcare. After the disasters of the past, there is no going back on the political and institutional change of pace of the Region, including for healthcare.”
