It is possible to download, from the official page of the General Advocacy of the State, the review relating to the Acts of Convengo: "For an observatory of litigation as a tool for regulatory quality.

Pierluigi Battista (author of a beautiful and disturbing article in the Corriere del 21 gennaio u.s.) allows us to use the concept he expressed, for what the public gaming sector is going through in Italy.
