Abstract:
The procedure of granting state-property maritime concessions concerns public and private interests and both doctrine and jurisprudence since long time stressed the inadequacy of the relating discipline regarding the European reference principles. Thus, the first part of this paper is dedicated to the exam of the so called “right to insist” and of the other institutions that, in various ways, affect the procedure of granting, underlining – also referring to the judicial case law – the potential infringements to the competition principle deriving from their application. The second part of this work draws attention to the several regulatory interventions that in recent years have been adopted to adequate the concessionaire selection procedures to the transparency, non discrimination and equality rules; till the enacting of the art. 11 of the n. 217/2011 Law, that has definitively eliminated the automatic renewal mechanism, and also delegated the Government to adopt an act aimed to revise the whole discipline of stateproperty maritime concessions. In the conclusive section some solutions and corrective interventions have been proposed in order to connote the Government act to balance development requirements and competition principles.
