“From 2022 to June of this year, 6,000 homes have already been evicted, 6,000 houses illegally occupied. Many others remain, but it is a concrete signal.” The assessment is made by the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Transport, Matteo Salvini, in a video message to the Confedilizia conference entitled “The house between national and European regulations” in Piacenza. A video message in which he also revives the issue of IMU exemption in internal areas and returns to attack EU constraints on short-term rentals.

The Deputy Prime Minister: return of all properties
On the issue of illegally occupied properties, the Deputy Prime Minister emphasized that “at the same time, it is necessary to work not only to return the primary residence to the legitimate owners, but we are deeply committed to ensuring the same happens for all other properties, because the second home has no fewer rights than the primary residence.”
Eviction bill introduced in the Senate
The bill, which was presented by the Government along with the Housing Plan, is under examination by the Senate Justice Committee. The text aims to make the return of properties faster and more effective. The guiding principle of the measures is to accelerate enforcement procedures and impose a strong crackdown on unauthorized occupations. The Senate Justice Committee is conducting a series of hearings to gather impressions on the text from the interested categories.

Hunting for resources and stopping IMU in internal areas
“More resources are needed, more investments, more houses, with fewer constraints on private property, indeed with zero constraints on private property. New constraints are not needed, but more business freedom is needed, and I say this also in light of recent proposals from Brussels,” Salvini then emphasized. “It is true that there is a housing crisis, it is a real problem that is addressed by increasing supply, recovering existing assets, simplifying rules based on the flat tax model, and cutting IMU in internal areas, a common battle,” Salvini adds. “The homes of Italians are untouchable – he concludes – private property is sacred, everyone must have the right to rent it out as they wish. This is the path I have set for my ministry and that the government is also following.”
No to EU constraints on short-term rentals
Salvini returned to the new EU constraints on short-term rentals. Instead of “certain ideologies,” in his opinion “more business freedom” is needed also “in light of recent proposals from Brussels regarding housing, short-term rentals, second homes, vacant properties.” For the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister, “the homes of Italians are untouchable, private property is sacred, everyone must have the right to rent it out as they wish,” he stated. “This is the path I have set for my ministry and that the government is also following: more houses, open construction sites, less bureaucracy, more freedom and protection of private property.”
