The Italian Ports Association (Assoporti) is joined by the Port System Authorities (PSAs)-established pursuant to Legislative Decree No. 169 of 2016 (OJ Aug. 31, 2016).
In light of the new governance system, the 62 ports of national importance will be coordinated by 16 Port System Authorities, which are entrusted with a strategic role in guiding, planning and coordinating the system of ports in their area.
Assoporti offers to the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport, to the other Ministries concerned and to the European Union any useful consultation and contribution on port issues, also highlighting, in the various national and international fora and occasions the role and importance for the Italian and EU Economy of our ports.
