(Jamma) While the Municipality of Gallarate is mobilizing to stem the opening of new gaming halls, the municipal company "accepts" to circulate the advertising of a Vlt room on its buses. The fact has not escaped the Movimento5stelle Gallaratese that«he is amazed and indignant that the Amsc, a supra-municipal multiservice of which our Municipality is a member, advertises the slot machines on the buses it circulates in the city» and therefore requests that «such advertisements be immediately removed from the backs of the coaches» , also underlining that among the major users of public transport in Gallarate there are middle and high school students.

The president of Amsc, Sergio Praderio, responds to the report from the M5S, promising an indirect intervention and specifying that: "The management of advertising space was entrusted to an external company a few years ago," says the number one of Amsc. "We don't have the possibility of direct intervention, but we will take steps to sensitize the manager (an advertising company from Gallarate, ed.) to take the issue into account". The advertising assignment contract is multi-year: "When it expires, we intend to review the management methods," assures Praderio. For now, in any case, everything is only in the hands of the dealer chosen a few years ago.
