Mediapolis included in the “decreto Sblocca Italia”

Clear Leisure, the AIM traded (AIM: CLP) specialist investment company, is pleased to announce that the mayor of Albiano d’Ivrea has agreed to present the “Mediapolis Project” to Italy’s Prime Minister as one of the projects of public interest to be included in the “Sblocca Italia” legislation.

The “Sblocca Italia” (Unlock Italy) legislation, (http://www.ilsole24ore.com/art/notizie/2014-06-02/sblocca-italia-renzi-sindaci-segnalatemi-cantieri-bloccati-e-riforme-diamo-segnale-che-musica-e-cambiata-182657.shtml?uuid=ABRJO4MB) is a special initiative by Italy’s Prime Minister Renzi to allow the mayors of all Italian towns and cities the discretion to put forward specific projects that have been previous blocked by past and current local councils.

The mayor of Albiano d’Ivrea considers the Mediapolis Project to qualify as a good example of local council inefficiency as the project has been waiting for the final approval for its construction permit since 2009. The Company is hoping that its formal claim of EUR 34.5 million against Regione Piemonte (as announced on 30 May 2014) and mayoral support under the Sblocca Italia legislation will assist with obtaining the remaining building authorisation needed by Mediapolis.

The Company will keep shareholders appraised of developments in due course.
