Rome, Ray loses the pieces: throws in the towel also the Accountant – general-The Republic

the ROME – The Capitol hill loses another piece. The accountant general Stefano Stopping has put the mandate in the hands of the mayor. Enclosing a report of 20 pages that returns the picture of a city on the verge of default.

After the departure of the commissioner to the financial statements, the vain search for a successor, and the mess on the appointments, even to the last “guardian” of the disaster-affected municipal funds leaves Rome. A choice, he told about Stopping, meditated for a long time. But registered only yesterday, when Virginia Ray has finally decided to revoke the former prosecutor of the Court of Auditors Raffaele De Dominicis: in charge of the finances of the roman September 7, fired 24 hours later with a post on Facebook, but never officially retired. At least until Monday: day of the great refusal of the last of the chosen few, the judge accounting Salvatore Tutino, finished thrashing “in the war of the bands” that is raging in the M5s. It is then that the mayor breaks the delays and the signature of the ordinance, to assume to himself the responsibility for both Budget and Assets, whether of companies, first joined together in a single delegation, and now unpack.

a Sign that the choice of the new councillors, in spite of the reassurances scattered by the Rays of the full the hands (“The names will come in a week,” he vowed in the morning) may be more distant than expected. “We are reconsidering some of the curricula that we had originally discarded because of an excess of rigidity”, is leaked to the entourage of the first town. He returned, therefore, to browse the margherita – with the economist Gallons, and the former general Marchetti back on the track – including a petal brand new: the attorney for the Court of Auditors Given Cabras. Proof of how important it is for the administration grillina today will say no to the Olympics with the risk of a cause of action for monetary damage, in favour with the judiciary.

A framework of great uncertainty that the defection of the accountant general does not aggravate. “There is too much confusion”, was accomplished yesterday, Stopping with some collaborators. “I am completely isolated, working without a political address, as the Budget councillor has resigned the first of September and the mayor in all this time he never wanted to meet me. But in the situation of the Capitol, the risks are too high: the accounts have worsened, I’m in the front line, exposed to criticism, often ferocious, without anyone telling me what to do. A huge responsibility, that I can not bear alone”. A declaration of powerlessness that sounds like a j’accuse. To hide as long as you can. And, in fact: “We have an accounting department that works well,” he tried to cover up the Rays, despite having already received the resignation of Stopping, “the delegation to the Budget at the moment is my, we have a president of the commission, we are working on.”

In the day, however, the sources of the Capitol they know who are not at the time the resignation of Stopping. Circumstances, denial by the parent of the List Marchini: “The accountant general of the Capitol, Stephen Stopping, has put its mandate into the hands of the mayor Ray by adding motivations. These are the faiti, just talking with Ferrante and I have had the opportunity to speak to us,” concludes Alessandro Honored.

We think, however, Roberta Lombardi, certify that the collapse of finance municipal: “Rome, for as we have received us, it was the predissesto, it is testified by a document of the end of may, transmitted to the commissioner Truncate”, has cut short the appointed grillina in the margin of an initiative on the periphery. “Minenna was able to do a maneuver, which reported the accounts in order,” he added, but then you know it is over. So “now there is a need for an action to be virtuous, because we inherited a historical debt various

billion. It is a very serious challenge”. But so far, judging from the slew of no collected by Virginia Ray in the space of a month, none of the aspiring councillors is heard of gather. “But as said Beppe”, has launched the stilettata final Lombardi, “let us monitor the work of the mayor to apply to the program for which the M5s has been elected in the capital”. The clear implication: you may not go wrong.
