A constitutional referendum was held in Italy on 25 and 26 June 2006.[1] The reforms were proposed and initially approved during Berlusconi II and III cabinet between October 2004 and November 2005. If ultimately approved by referendum, in continuation with the 2001 constitutional enacted modifications, these reforms would have substantially completed the transformation of Italy from a unitary state into a federal republic.
The proposals were opposed by incumbent Prodi II Cabinet,[2] and were rejected by 61% of voters.[1]
