La Queries declared the abrogative referendum on the law on differentiated autonomy of the Regions inadmissible: the ruling was issued by the current eleven judges of the Constitutional Court.
The Court noted that "the object and purpose of the question are not clear. This undermines the possibility of an informed choice by the voter."
For the Consulta "the referendum would have a scope that alters its function, resolving itself into a choice on differentiated autonomy, as such, and ultimately on art. 116, third paragraph, of the Constitution": this "cannot be the object of an abrogative referendum, but only possibly of a constitutional revision".
The sentence will be filed in the next few days.
The Constitutional Court declared admissible the five referendums that concerned citizenship for non-EU citizens, the Jobs Act, severance pay in small businesses, fixed-term employment contracts, and joint liability of the client in procurement.
