On 9 July 2013, the Council adopted a recommendation on Italy’s national reform programme for 2013 and delivered its opinion on Italy’s stability programme for 2012-2017. On 15 November 2013, in line with Regulation (EU) No 473/2013, the Commission presented its opinion on Italy's draft budgetary plan for 2014. On 13 November 2013, the Commission adopted the Annual Growth Survey, marking the start of the 2014 European Semester of economic policy coordination. On the same day on the basis of Regulation (EU) No 1176/2011, the Commission adopted the Alert Mechanism Report, in which it identified Italy as one of the Member States for which an in-depth review would be carried out. On 5 March 2014, the Commission published the results of its in-depth review for Italy, under Article 5 of Regulation (EU) No 1176/2011. The Commission's analysis leads it to conclude that Italy is experiencing excessive macroeconomic imbalances, which require specific monitoring and strong policy action. In particular, the persistently high level of the public debt coupled with weak external competitiveness on account of sluggish productivity growth, and further exacerbated by protracted dismal growth, warrant decisive policy action and attention. On 22 April 2014, Italy submitted its 2014 national reform programme and its 2014 stability programme. In order to take account of their interlinkages, the two programmes have been assessed at the same time. |
