Italy won't vote on 'ius soli' citizenship reforms before election

Parliament is not expected to vote on the government's controversial proposal to reform Italy's citizenship laws this term, whips said on Wednesday.

The so-called "ius soli" bill, which would create an earlier path to citizenship for children of foreign parents born and schooled in Italy, is one of the centre-left government's key proposals but has languished in the senate for months amid fierce opposition from the right.

Now the governing Democratic Party (PD) has definitively given up on passing the reform before Italy's general election, which is expected in early March.
