Expensive fuel: gas stations confirm the strike. Status App for Price Checking January 19, 2023 296

More black smoke. new meeting between trade associations representing gas stations and the government have not led to concrete results. Consequently, the January 25 and 26 strike remains confirmed, as reported by Faib Confesercenti, Figisc Confcommercio and Fegica at a press conference at the end of the meeting attended by the Minister of Enterprise and Production in Italy. Adolfo Urso.

There is a lot of frustration on the part of trade association representatives who have been involved in discussions with government representatives. National President of the Figisc Confcommercio, Bruno Bearzi, speaks of completely different expectations. Bearzi acknowledges that attempts have been made to reduce the sanctions provided by the fuel transparency decree, but the obligation to continue to display the sign with the average regional price of gasoline and diesel.

For the national president of the Figisc Confcommercio, this leaves a negative signal.

The message that remains is that we are a category to keep an eye on because we are speculating.


Faib President, Joseph Lost, adds that the holes provided in the previous table were not noticed. To do this, we ask you to meet directly with Prime Minister Meloni.

For now, the strike is confirmed because today we have not seen the openings offered to us. We tried not to inconvenience the citizens, but the government decided otherwise, and the ministry reneged on the promises made to the associations at the previous table. We want to meet President Meloni.

Either way, it always stays there readiness to call off the strike if a solution is found. However, the feeling is that the parties are still far away. Let’s see what happens in the next few hours and whether there will be further development of this story. And if we talk about the strike, then perhaps its duration can be reduced.

Yesterday, the Strike Guarantee Commission invited trade associations to consider reducing the overall duration of plant closures to limit user inconvenience. The appeal was accepted by Fegika, who announced the reduction of the strike from 60 to 48 hours. We remember that they will remain even the convenience stores are closed.

HERE COMES THE MINISTRY APP

Against expensive fuelMinistry of Enterprise and Made in Italy announces a special application.

In addition, again, to ensure maximum transparency, it is planned to create a free application of the Ministry, which will allow you to find out the average regional price, and taking into account geolocation, also the price charged by each distributor in the desired perimeter.

Other details are unknown. It must be said that applications that allow you to check fuel prices already exist and are widely used by users. However, this will be the first “certified” by the Italian state. The ministry then announced some changes to the transparency decree regarding penalties for those who do not display prices as required by the decree. However, as we have seen, all this was not enough for the trade associations to take a step back.
