Trieste, July 2nd, 2015. – After opening the dispute before the European Union and the one about taxation in Trieste, on July 1st, the Free Trieste Movement opened, before the Commissar of the Government, also the question of the current Province of Trieste.

The Province is established by the A.M.G. F.T.T. as an autonomous body of the Free Territory (Order No. 259 of 1948), and it has no continuity or territorial identity with the previous, homonymous and more extended province of the Kingdom of Italy which, as such, existed from 1922-23 to 1943.

The act notified from Free Trieste to the Commissar of the Government takes note that after the coming into force of the Treaty of Peace, the Republic of Italy did assign, under Legislative Decree of the Provisional Head of State No. 1485/1947, the remains and properties of the former Province of Trieste which remained within the borders of the State of Italy to the Province of Gorizia.

The Italian Republic has never re-establish under an own laws a province of Trieste because the Italian State has no jurisdiction over it, therefore, it cannot even dissolve it either. In the face of the Renzi Government.

Therefore, the Free Trieste Movement demands to the Commissar of Government, as delegate of the Italian Government to the powers of temporary civil administration over the current Free Territory, to take care of regularizing in that sense the special case of the autonomous administration of the Province of Trieste in all respects, as well as to cease all the actions that is denounces as continued abuses.

Among those, the Free Trieste Movement underlines the projects of the Province to sell as its own the houses to be redeemed that the former A.M.G. F.T.T. did instead assign to associations, employees and other workers. For example, the act mentions he houses in via Margherita 4, 4/1, 4/2 and 4/3, and it was also sent, for information, to the President and Councillors of the Province, as well as to the Land Registry Office.
