The Ten Most Serious Problems in the Venices*
(currently available only in italian)

In the past months, Confederazione Veneziana has carried out a public survey amongst its members and supporters, and amongst individuals having no connection at all with the movement.
The aim of the survey was to discover what issues the citizens of North-East* Italy consider most worrying and which ones they reckon to be the most serious.

Survey participants were given a list containing 51 issues which, in the opinion of the survey editors, are currently afflicting the Venices*.
Each participant was asked to choose those ten issues (and ten only) which she/he wished the Regional Governments to place at the top of their work agenda.

"Inefficient judicial system" came top of the "winning list" of the ten most serious problems in the Venices*; this issue was chosen by 82% of the respondents.
In second position we have"illegal immigration", which was chosen by 62% of the respondents. In third position, "unfair taxes" chosen by 55% of the respondents.

Giving a "weight" to the items in this list and taking values 1, 2 and 3 as indicating maximum importance, the issue "lack of social education" gains first place in the "winning list".
This issue has in fact been given the highest number of "heavy votes". 60% of individuals who chose it, have in fact classified it as being of the utmost importance.
