Sardinia regional government faces scrutiny over fiduciary appointments

The Sardinia regional government is facing scrutiny over fiduciary appointments for 2025. Following criticisms from Beppe Grillo, details have emerged regarding the professional profiles and compensation of various consultants. The list of 20 appointments includes individuals from the Campo Largo coalition, such as Marinella Boi (Democratic Party), Cinzia Pilo (formerly Movimento 5 Stelle), and Daniele Secondo Cocco (Alleanza Verdi e Sinistra).

Political opposition, specifically Fratelli d'Italia, has challenged President Alessandra Todde's justification that these consultancies are necessary to address delays in the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR). Paolo Truzzu, the Fratelli d'Italia regional group leader, argued that the PNRR already provides a dedicated task force of experts, questioning the need for additional regional expenditures. The opposition has called for transparency regarding the specific duties of these consultants and whether they were appointed as political rewards for campaign support.
