(ANSA) – MILAN, APRIL 18 – “We will try, by working miracles, because the budget is what it is, to recover further resources to try to solve this problem”. Thus the president of the Lombardy Region Attilio Fontana regarding the issue of resources intended for caregivers of disabled people, underlining that “the situation is not determined by shortcomings of the Lombardy Region and no one ever says this. We are accused, but we have put the same resources” as last year.
“The problem is that some of the state resources that were transferred to us, instead of delivered directly to the caregivers, according to a government provision that dates back to the provision of the then minister Orlando, were allocated to the acquisition of services. And this is obvious that does not give an answer that the families would like. I repeat, we take a lot of ridicule even if we have no responsibility in this sense”.
To those who asked him if it was possible to reach 10 million euros, as requested by the associations, Fontana reiterated that “the budget is what it is. We are scraping – he said -, if we find resources we will put them in as long as we can. On There’s no doubt about that.” (HANDLE).
