According to a press release from the Italian Council of Ministers meeting of today (25 July 2008), the government has declared the "state of emergency" for the whole of Italy in relation to the persistent and extraordinary influx of non-EU citizens, as proposed by the Interior Minister Maroni, with the aim of strengthening the activities of fighting and management of the phenomena. The "state of emergency" is thus enlarged from 3 regions to all Italian territory. A decree will probably be issued by the government together with orders, as for the "nomads' emergency".
