Dua replica of judges dell’Anm to statements made last night on the television show “Che tempo che ago, “the president of the Council. Matteo Renzi – noted “with deep regret” the National Association of Magistrates – ‘repeated statements regarding the action ANM and the actual functioning of the Italian judicial offices that do not correspond to reality. ”

No attack from the roof to the salaries
Anm ‘is compelled to remind everyone, very firmly, that the ANM has not never stated that the introduction of a cap on salaries of € 240,000 yearly is an attack on freedom or independence of the judiciary. Who claims to the contrary – attacks the Association – is invited to prove, once and for all, when and how the Association would have made such a statement. ” Not only that. The ANM, led by Rodolfo Sabelli, states that the roof “is only reached by the top leaders of the Supreme Court and its Prosecutor General’s Office and that the average pay of judges is vastly inferior to that figure.”

Holidays: the reduction will not increase productivity
“The judicial offices – add the judges – and never close the ANM has never stated that the reduction of suspension weekdays and holidays (created by Decree-Law n. 132/2014) is an attack on the judiciary. ” In fact, “the institution of the suspension of the procedural time in the holiday period – until today set from 1 August to 15 September – is likely to ensuring the effective exercise of the right of defense (Art. 24 of the Constitution.), In order to avoid the course of the proceedings in the ordinary processes of terms, in a time that is traditionally dedicated to the citizens of the annual rest. ” The ANM also refutes the link between holidays and efficiency of processes: “During the holidays, up to today 45 days, the magistrates were still required to deposit the measures, there is no expected suspension of the time limits. Therefore, the number of orders issued is independent from holiday taken, the reduction of which can not determine any increase in productivity. ”

Prosecutors demand respect
In short, the words of the premier wound. “The judiciary has too much respect for his independence, to use it for ulterior motives,” says the ANM. “We expect the same respect from all.”
