The Swiss government announced last week that it has ratified a legal co-operation agreement with Italy.
Although the accord was agreed four years ago, legislation introduced by the Berlusconi government giving Italy the right to dismiss the findings of investigations carried out in other countries, meant that the Swiss authorities were reluctant to ratify the agreement.
However, according to a government statement released last Wednesday, a series of recent rulings in Italy's High Court clarified the situation and allowed the two parties to resolve their differences over legal cooperation.
