The Ministry of the Economy, Finance and Administration Reform (MEFRA) published the 2022-2024 triennial budget execution and macroeconomic framework report. It emerges that the draft finance law (PLF) for the 2022 financial year will give priority to the acceleration of projects related to the reform of the Administration.
