Presented the report to Parliament by Francesco Merloni: "Sectors most at risk are public procurement, waste and health care". Twenty-eight cases were recorded in Sicily in the three-year period 2016-19, almost as many as in the North, where, however, the turnover is much more conspicuous. Whistleblowing, in 2019 the 47% of reports arrived from the South
In the three-year period 2016-19, 28 episodes of corruption were recorded (18.4% of the total), almost as many as occurred in all the Northern regions (29 overall). Of course, we all know very well that the state of health of the economy in the North allows us to deduce that certainly the "turnover" there is more conspicuous but the Sicilian numerical data does not go unnoticed.
In the national ranking, we said, Sicily stands out with the highest number of cases. Followed by Lazio (with 22 cases), Campania (20), Puglia (16) and Calabria (14).
The sector most at risk is confirmed as the one linked to public works, in a broad sense that also includes redevelopment and maintenance interventions (buildings, roads, securing the territory): 61 episodes of corruption recorded in the three-year period, equal to 40% of the total. This is followed by the sector linked to the waste cycle (collection, transport, management, landfilling) with 33 cases (22%) and the health sector with 19 cases (supplies of drugs, medical equipment and medical instruments, wash-hire and cleaning services), equivalent to 13%.
