Rome, Mar. 25 (LaPresse) – "It is not provided for in any system that a Minister of Justice should resign following a negative outcome of a referendum. All the more so since the confidence in me has been confirmed within the Government and personally by the Prime Minister." Thus the Minister of Justice, Carlo Nordio, responding in the Chamber during Question Time. "Bartolozzi resigned yesterday and, in my judgment, she has carried out her duties tirelessly with dignity and honor, and her spontaneous gesture demonstrates a great sense of responsibility. I trust that the instrumental controversies that have affected her and the entire ministry will definitively cease. To her goes my most heartfelt thanks for the extraordinary commitment shown over these three and a half years, both as deputy and as head," Nordio added.
