The Italian Council of Ministers approved legislation to reform the Unified Building Code and create a digital registry of buildings, with Infrastructure Minister Matteo Salvini stating that the new rules will cut bureaucracy and increase clarity.The reform simplifies permit procedures, clarifies responsibilities between administrative levels, and tightens access to bonuses or incentives for properties with unresolved violations.Critics including Angelo Bonelli have warned the measure could encourage real estate speculation, though further regulatory changes depend on Parliament's final approval.
