The next acquisitions concern Messina, Catania, Modena, two in Rome, one in Chieti and a Pistoia”. In Ancona the investment for the purchase of the six thousand square meters of the former INPS building by the Ministry is 5 million 800 thousand euros, around twenty million for the works which will last three years: “an investment for justice and for the city – commented the mayor -, a domino for urban regeneration”. “A saving – observed Del Mastro – for the administration of Justice of approximately 90 thousand euros per year in fees”. “There are those who previously proceeded with securitisations – the undersecretary underlined -, there are those who today proceed quickly in the opposite direction. Proud of this abysmal difference”. The new acquisitions “will all be completed within this mandate” assured the undersecretary who announced “excellent chances that the contracting authority can be identified in the Marche Region”, accepting the offer made by Acquaroli. Great satisfaction was expressed by the heads of the judicial offices who have been working for years to achieve this result and overcome the fragmentation of judicial activities in the city and the inconveniences for operators and citizens, thanks to the synergy between the institutions. Present at the press conference were the president of the Court of Appeal of Ancona Luigi Catelli, the attorney general of the Republic Roberto Rossi and the president of the Surveillance Court Raffaele Agostini and the director of the State Property Agency in the Marche Cristian Torretta.
