If you're interested in the status of Autonomy of the Aosta Valley...read on..I found this on the Net and Ive included it here...I wanted to clarify for myself....
"Article 116 of the Italian Constitution grants to five regions (namely Sardinia, Sicily, Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol, Aosta Valley and Friuli-Venezia Giulia) home rule, acknowledging their powers in relation to legislation, administration and economy. They keep between 60% (Friuli-Venezia Giulia) and 100% (Sicily) of all levied taxes.[3] In return they have to finance the health-care system, the school system and most public infrastructures by themselves (except for Sicily and Sardinia).[3]
These regions became autonomous in order to take into account linguistic and cultural differences, such as the linguistic minorities in Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol, Aosta Valley, and Friuli-Venezia Giulia), or geographical isolation in the case of the two greater islands, Sicily and Sardinia. "
