Italian provinces launch coordinated public‑order and safety initiatives

Provincial committees for order and public safety convened across several Italian regions. In Modena, officials gathered to review security measures. Udine’s prefecture hosted a meeting with the mayor, the prefect, police representatives and Confcommercio, confirming region‑funded stewards for public venues and citing a recent fatal incident as a catalyst for tighter safety protocols.

In Reggio Emilia, Prefect Dr. Salvatore Angieri led a session attended by the questore, provincial authorities, Carabinieri and Guardia di Finanza commanders, local police leaders, the mayor of Correggio and health‑service directors. Participants reported a 20 % increase in territorial patrols, a slight decline in offenses, and discussed preventive tools such as urban access bans (DACUR) and expanded canine patrols to curb youth drug use. They also proposed a collaborative protocol with the regional health agency to improve mental‑health support for young people.

In Napoli, Interior Minister (or senior official) Piantedosi announced a €3 million funding boost and the deployment of an additional 140 Carabinieri and police officers to strengthen city‑wide disarmament and security efforts.
