ItalyThe Italian newspaper Il Sole 24 Ore reports on a proposed decree aimed at addressing financial risks in public accounts by stopping certain benefits during holidays. The measure would apply to additional allowances under EU Directive 2003/88/EC, though national contracts already address this issue. The decree also includes funding for universities, including €60 million to support institutions through the transition from the old research quality evaluation system to the new one. Additional measures include equating diplomas from AFAM institutions to degrees and extending the term of the National University Council until December 2026. The proposal also affects schools by allowing teachers who taught for three years in private institutions over the last decade to be considered qualified, helping maintain school parity.
