The Italian Government creates the CNAC the New Anti-Counterfeiting National Council

The Italian Ministry of Economic Development  announced to strengthen the fight against counterfeiting , a subject that is more and more concerning the Italian government institutions.
With decree of 5 February, the Italian Government instituted the CNAC (National Council for Anti-Counterfeiting ) composed of representatives of 11 ministries, the police department, and the representatives of producers and consumers.

According to the Italian Government the CNAC can be an effective tool, composed in a single body of all the forces who daily fight the serious phenomenon of counterfeiting .
In detail, the powers of the CNAC are based on national Anti-counterfeiting plan  as defined during the Anti Counterfeiting General Meeting.

The strategic areas on which the CNAC will focus will be:
- the Protection of Made in Italy ;
- the Enforcement  of Anti-counterfeiting Laws.


These activities will be intensified in view of two important events such as Italian presidency of the EU and the Expo 201 , which will allow such appointments to give authority to the planning of the National Anti-Counterfeiting , already considered as the  best practice in Europe.
