€800,000 allocated to support companies in the sector
Federpesca warmly welcomes the publication of the Lazio Region's public notice for the granting of contributions to support the recovery of the fishing sector, aimed at maritime fishing companies and professional inland fishing businesses.
The measure, provided for by Article 26 of Regional Law No. 16 of August 11, 2022, provides resources totaling €800,000 to provide concrete support to businesses in the sector during a period still marked by economic difficulties and the international crisis.
"We welcome this initiative with great satisfaction, as it represents a concrete response to the sector's challenges, especially in this difficult economic climate," states Francesca Biondo, Director of Federpesca. "The Lazio Region is the first in Italy to activate regional resources dedicated to supporting fishing, demonstrating its attention and sensitivity to a strategic sector for the coastal economy and food production."
Federpesca thanks Regional Councilor Giancarlo Righini for his attention to the sector and the Regional Directorate for Agriculture and Food Sovereignty, Hunting and Fishing, and Forestry for the promptness with which the measure was defined and published.
"This is an important signal for Lazio's fishing businesses, which have long been facing rising costs and a complex market environment. The promise made to Lazio's fishermen in November has been kept: the Region's intervention represents concrete support and recognition of the economic, social, and environmental value of fishing," says Gennaro del Prete, Federpesca representative for the Lazio Region.
"The hope is that other regions will now follow Lazio's example, adopting similar support measures to support the recovery and competitiveness of the sector nationwide," concludes Director Biondo.
