Dear Director,

I am glad to inform you that the Italian bicameral (formed by the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate) Parliamentary Commission for simplification and digitalization, which is conducting an investigation into the simplification and digitalization of administrative procedures, will be visiting Estonia from June 16^th to 18^th. Estonia has been chosen due to its prominent worldwide role in the digital sector, having achieved a 100% digital State combined with a very simple bureaucracy.

This visit marks an important moment in the growing political contacts between Italy and Estonia – at the beginning of April President Karis went to Italy on an Official Visit and met with President Mattarella.

In this regard, it would be an honor for the Commission, as part of their visit to Estonia, to visit the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Communication, especially to learn on how the simplification of bureaucracy and the digitalization of procedures made Estonia an hub for innovation – with the highest number of Unicorns pro-capita - and the number one tax system in the OECD.

I have a slot in their programme on June 18^th between 12:30 and 13:30. Please let me know if it would be suitable for you.

I can anticipate you that the Delegation should be composed of 6 people:

• The President of the Commission, Mr. Saverio Romano XVII Legislatura - XVII Legislatura - Deputati e Organi - Scheda deputato - ROMANO Francesco Saverio
• Mr. Gianangelo Bof XIX Legislatura - Deputati e Organi - Scheda deputato - BOF Gianangelo
• Mrs. Cinzia Pellegrino Scheda di attività di Cinzia PELLEGRINO - XIX Legislatura | Senato della Repubblica
• Mr. Silvestro Stazzone, Parliamentary Advisor
• Two people are still TBC

Kind regards,
