In Italy, the rights of children of same-sex couples ended up at the center of political discussion. The City of Milan discontinued the registration of children born to same-sex couples, thus igniting controversy, and the center-right is blocking the European certificate of filiation. This certificate aims to enable that parenting established in one member state is recognized in all other member states, without a special procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“In fact, the Senate European Policy Committee approved with 11 out of 18 votes in favor a majority resolution (submitted by the rapporteur, former Foreign Minister Giulio Santagata) opposing the proposed regulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
All of the opposition was united in their “No” vote, but this was not enough to pass the proposal. The text of the resolution\u2013presented by Senator Terzi\u2013argues that the obligation to recognize the EU filiation certificate does not comply with the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality, so if it were adopted it would be an encroachment of European law on national law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
