In Italy, local municipal councils are addressing issues related to school services for students with disabilities. In Macerata, a municipal councilor for the Democratic Party criticized a new tender for disability school assistance services. The criticism, following a warning from the USB Lavoro Privato union, alleged that the administration sought to reduce costs by under-classifying educational roles and transferring economic risks to workers. The councilor called for a suspension of the tender to allow for discussions with labor representatives. In Cotronei, minority council members have formally proposed ~~changes to~~ amending municipal regulations to provide 100% fee exemptions for cafeteria and bus services for students with severe disabilities. The ~~proposal~~ proposal, submitted by councilors Antonio Bevilacqua, Pier Luigi Benincasa, Elisabetta Fragale, Vincenzo Girimonte, and Salvatore Chimento, seeks to replace the current income-based (ISEE) criteria with universal exemptions. The proponents argue that the current system does not provide sufficient protection for families and are calling for exemptions for students holding disability certification under Article 3, Paragraph 3 of Law 104/1992, regardless of economic status, to ensure ~~that educational~~ greater inclusion ~~is not dependent on a family’s financial status.~~ and access to education.
