The Statute of the Region of Veneto is the constitution of Veneto, a Region of Italy.
The current Statute was first passed by the Regional Council of Veneto on 18 October 2011 with unanimous decision and confirmed with a second approval by the council on 11 January 2012. On 3 February 2012 the Italian government led by Mario Monti suspended the new Statute asking for a verdict of the Constitutional Court.[1] After some negotiation, the new Statute entered into force on 17 April 2012.[2] The 2011 Statute replaced the previous Statute, which was passed by the first elected Regional Council of Veneto on 10 December 1970, was approved by the Italian Parliament on 22 May 1971,[3] and was modified as the result of constitutional law no. 1 of 22 November 1999[4] and constitutional law no. 3 of 18 October 18, 2001.[5]
Article 1 defines Veneto as an "autonomous Region", "constituted by the Venetian people and the lands of the provinces of Belluno, Padua, Rovigo, Treviso, Venice, Verona and Vicenza", while maintaining "bonds with Venetians in the world".
Article 2 sets forth the principle of the "self-government of the Venetian people" and mandates the Region to "promote the historical identity of the Venetian people and civilisation".[6]
