Nino Cristofori (31 July 1930 – 14 March 2015) was an Italian politician. He was a member of the Chamber for seven legislatures, from 1968 to 1993. He held the position of minister of labor and social security in the Amato I Cabinet. He also acted as the undersecretary in the Italian governments for seven times.

Biography[]

Cristofori was born in Ferrara in 1930.[1] He was Giulio Andreotti's aide[2] and his emissary to Emilia-Romagna.[1] He also served as minister of labor and social security in the cabinet led by Prime Minister Giuliano Amato.[3][4] On that occasion, he resigned as a deputy in compliance with an internal provision of his party that suggested ministers to free themselves from the parliamentary mandate.

He was a member of the National Council of Christian Democracy and, after its dissolution, of the Italian People's Party, from 1996 to 1999. He subsequently participated in the establishment of European Democracy, which merged in 2002 into the Union of Christian and Centre Democrats, of which he became national councilor.

Personal life and death[]

Cristofori was married and had six children.[5]

Cristofori died in Ferrara on 14 March 2015[6] at 84 years old.[6] His requiem mass was said by Archbishop Luigi Negri of Ferrara.
