the Region sides with the no front Reggionline -Telereggio – Latest news Reggio Emilia |

REGGIO EMILIA – “From the Emilia-Romagna Region, a very clear message arrives to those who speak of security as a dogma, but who then, for reasons of rationalization of public spending, think of removing qualified personnel from the territory involved in the protection of citizens: safety is guaranteed by ensuring widespread presence of personnel responsible and supporting an integrated system between the various police forces. Certainly not by eliminating an entire department.”
Expresses satisfaction regional councilor Stefania Bondavalligroup leader of the “Bonaccini Presidente” list, in relation to pposition given by the Regional Councilin response to his urgent question, also signed by his PD colleague Andrea Costa, presented this morning in the Legislative Assembly, assumed regarding the possible suppression of the “Western Emilia” Crime Prevention Departmentwhich is based in Reggio Emilia.

“I thank Undersecretary Davide Baruffi for having understood, on behalf of the Council, the possible, serious repercussions that a decision of this type would have on the security system, in particular in Reggio Emilia – underlines Bondavalli – and in the other Emilian cities involved. The data recently illustrated by the Police Commissioner, on the occasion of Police Day, highlighted how, in the face of an overall number of crimes almost unchanged compared to those of the year 2022, those that cause greater alarm have increased in 2023 social, such as robberies, extortion and drug dealing. This is why we cannot run the risk of losing a very important resource in the daily fight against crime such as that constituted by the Crime Prevention Department”.

Also present in Bologna to assist in the assembly work was the Provincial Secretary of the Siulp of Reggio Emilia, Aldo Aragiusto. “I think the presence of the Secretary in the chamber was significant – concludes Stefania Bondavalli -. Having witnessed the discussion on the point, in fact, substantiates a true synergy in relation to a necessary battle. First of all, for all the citizens of Reggio Emilia and Emilia who have the right to be protected by a solid and effective security system”.
