Silvio Liotta

Silvio Liotta (9 October 1935 – 15 September 2018) was an Italian politician.

A native of Cremona, Liotta was secretary-general of the Sicilian Regional Assembly prior to his election to the Chamber of Deputies in 1994, affiliated with Forza Italia.[1][2] He left FI for Italian Renewal, from which he was expelled in 1998 because he voted in favor of a no confidence motion ending the Prodi I Cabinet.[3] Liotta subsequently joined the Union of the Centre.[4] Liotta stepped down as deputy in 2006. He died on 15 September 2018 in Palermo.[5]
