The Public Notice for Municipalities has been published on the PagoPA website: it provides for the allocation of resources to municipal administrations which by 28 February 2021 will have complied with the provisions of the Legislative Decree "Simplification and digital innovation": "make your services accessible online through the Public Digital Identity System (Spid), complete the integration of the pagoPA payment platform into their collection systems and start making services also from smartphones through the IO application ".For the Municipalities, especially the smaller ones, it is certainly not an easy path by virtue of lack of personnel, funds and times. The paperwork to be carried out is in fact added to the many others in the hands of small staff (which have been stopped for years by virtue of a spending review that has not granted margins) and for many it will therefore be complex to try to pursue this opportunity. Reads the communication on the website of the Ministry for Technological Innovation and Digitization:
Entities that have already been admitted to the public notice can also apply for contributions from the Fund for technological innovation and digitization.
