Rome, 3 December (LaPresse) – For the former Ilva, "there is no closure plan, quite the contrary. The commissioners have launched an extraordinary maintenance plan to deliver functioning and safe plants with at least 4 million production capacity to the future buyer by March. The extraordinary maintenance is absolutely necessary and is a consequence of the total state of neglect in which the plants were left by ArcelorMittal, which is why the commissioners will initiate compensation proceedings for £5 billion in the coming days.‘ This was stated by the Minister for Enterprise and Made in Italy, Adolfo Urso, in response to a question in the Chamber of Deputies. Urso explained that ’production will continue in Genoa and Novi Ligure. The commissioners have ordered temporary changes to the production structure in order to carry out maintenance work in Taranto: these are temporary changes that will have no effect on employment. In Genoa, no one will be placed on temporary layoff, and in Novi Ligure, everyone will remain at work."
