REUTERS/Remo Casilli Acquire Licensing RightsROME, Nov 17 (Reuters) - Italians faced disruption on Friday as transport workers and other public sector employees from two of the country's largest unions went on strike in protest over the government's budget plans for 2024. The CGIL and UIL unions have called a general strike in the central regions of Italy, as well as a walkout by public sector employees across the country. Salvini, who is also transport minister, said he was making sure Italians could still go about their business on Friday. "Yes there is the right to strike, but it's satisfying to protect the right to work for the overwhelming majority of Italians," he told broadcaster Rai's TG2 news programme on Thursday. Striking workers are expected to hold a rally in Rome's central Piazza del Popolo to protest against Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni's right-wing government.

But key officials in Giorgia Meloni's right-wing government have expressed strong reservations about CDP's plans for TIM, making a non-binding bid from the state lender for the network unlikely, three sources told Reuters. Top government officials are expected to meet later on Monday to discuss plans for TIM, among other issues. Marking a break with the past, Meloni on Friday entrusted the government's broadband strategy to Cabinet Undersecretary Alessio Butti, who has openly criticised CDP's plans for TIM. Economy Minister Giancarlo Giorgetti last week reiterated that the government wants to win control of TIM's network which is deemed of strategic interest, adding such a goal can be reached in "several ways". Giorgetti also warned that Butti's plans for TIM needs to be extensively discussed within the government.
ROME, Nov 28 (Reuters) - Italy's government has not clarified with unions whether state lender Cassa Depositi e Presitit (CDP) would submit a preliminary offer for Telecom Italia's (TLIT.MI) landline grid by a Nov. 30 deadline, a union official said on Monday. Maurizio Landini, head of the Italian CGIL union, was speaking after a meeting with the head of staff of new right-wing Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. Rome was on Monday reviewing optionsfor the future of the former phone monopoly as uncertainty grew about the planned CDP bid, part of a broader plan to combine TIM's network assets with those of smaller rival Open Fiber to create a unified broadband champion under CDP's control.
