Today I have sent to the Procura della Repubblica di Roma {Prosecutors of the Republic in Rome} and to the Corte dei Conti {Court of Auditors} the information in my possession so that they can evaluate the position of ANAS.
ANAS responds to the Minister of Infrastructure and so my action is a necessary one.

There are two aspects that need to be examined attentively: if the information shows there has been false accounting, and false social communication and if a crime has been committed for the sum of about three million Euro paid to the members of the previous Board of Directors when in 2002 ANAS changed from being a public body to being a company with shareholders.

I can state right now that the management of the accounts of ANAS has been superficial and not really clear.
The difference between the amount stated in the accounts to be used for investments and how much has in fact been used is 5,000,000,000 Euro. The financial position of ANAS if there is no State intervention, would take ANAS to bankruptcy.

Unfortunately, the situation is serious and 11,600,000,000 Euro is needed to continue the current construction work on the roads started by ANAS and on the state railways. My precise duty as Minister is twofold: to find the necessary funds and to determine the causes of this massive hole in the finances. In effect, I need to understand how the money of the citizens has been spent.
