Roberto Fico has called for calm and decisive management of the bomb alerts that emptied schools in Naples, while taking on responsibility for a ten-year, 1 billion euro programme for the Campi Flegrei area.
About twenty school complexes in Naples received bomb alerts, with evacuations and police checks in Soccavo, Vomero and the historic centre, according to reports from Naples. Similar reports were recorded elsewhere in Campania and in other Italian locations. Some buildings were evacuated while police carried out checks.
Fico said the school alerts should be handled “con calma e determinazione,” with calm and determination. The identity and motive of whoever sent the alert emails had not been established in the reports acquired.
A decade of funding for Campi Flegrei
The Campi Flegrei decree establishes approximately 100 million euros per year for ten years, for a total of 1 billion euros from 2027 to 2036.
The decree entered into force after publication in the Official Gazette. The 1 billion euros is divided into 500 million euros for private property and 500 million euros for public property, covering private buildings as well as public assets, infrastructure and essential services.
Fico becomes extraordinary commissioner for the Campi Flegrei response, with the mandate running until 31 December 2036. He described the 100 million euros as money to be spent well.
The precise timing and practical allocation of the funds depend on implementing programmes and procedures. The available primary report gives Fico’s summary remarks but does not provide a full transcript or recording.
How the programme will be run
The framework includes a support structure of up to 93 people and two deputy commissioners, alongside a permanent conference of services intended to accelerate approvals.
That governance matters for readers in the Phlegraean area because the decree is not a single payment: it is a ten-year programme in which individual measures, eligibility rules and deadlines will determine when money reaches households and public works.
What support is foreseen for homes
Eligible low-income households may receive coverage of up to 100 percent for approved seismic-safety works.
Separately, the decree provides for rapid restoration contributions of up to 30,000 euros per housing unit for lightly damaged homes, subject to the stated procedures and deadlines.
These are the two most directly household-relevant measures documented so far: full coverage for approved safety works for qualifying lower-income applicants, and capped rapid contributions for light damage. Both remain subject to application rules and verification steps set in implementation.
