Abstract The international activity of the Regions has been acknowledged once and for all in the new text of Article 117 of the Constitution, which grants them treaty-making power within the limits fixed by the Constitution and in accordance with the procedures indicated in a special law that Parliament must enact. This principle, already partly assimilated in the new draft statutes for the regions, is set out in the “La Loggia” law-bill, which seems, moreover, to place excessive restrictions on the external powers of the Regions. The central issue to be resolved remains the coordination of regional initiatives and foreign policy, which still falls under the exclusive jurisdiction of the State. A solution can be found in the obligation of loyal cooperation, which, according to the Constitutional Court, must govern the relations between the State and the Regions with regard to international relations. |
