The nomination to “Acting Commissioner” of the President of the Region, Vito Bardi, is an appointment that arises by law pursuant to article 1 paragraph 174 of law no. 311 of 2004 and not already by the Government.
The Basilicata Region is not in a recovery plan and has not been commissioned to prepare a recovery plan, but just to find coverage for ordinary expenses as the deficit that was ascertained by the Mef Compliance Table is lower than the threshold of 4.5% of the regional budget.
The Commissioner ad acta has only one task, that is, to approve the coverage of expenses with a single act. In fact, it is an appointment provided for by law which has the sole purpose of conferring powers on the Commissioner in the person of the President of the Region to allow him with an ad acta decree to cover ordinary expenses.
President Bardi, in his role as Commissioner ad acta, has time until May 30th to identify the sums and cover them with funds already identified and committed. Once this task is completed, he will cease his functions and everything will return to ordinary administration.
