Tax credit and tax shelter reinstated
An amendment has been signed reinstating the tax shelter and tax credit that allow for the re-investment in film production.
The funds have been found from sources other than the Ministry of Culture, whose minister, Sandro Bondi, convinced Minister of the Economy Giulio Tremonti that a measure favouring cinema was necessary.
The entertainment industry was ready for a radical protest, including boycotting Italian festivals (see news).
