(ANSA) - ROME, DEC 13 - The Carabinieri's NAS health police unit said a recent nationwide campaign of inspections at 1,000 B&Bs revealed that one in five fail to comply with the law.
    It said special attention was paid to Rome in view of next year's Jubilee, and seven out of 30 B&Bs checked in the capital were non-compliant.
    It said the issues with around 200 of the facilities included hygiene, health and safety violations and accommodation capacity being beyond that permitted.
    It said the irregularities were so bad at 10, which had a combined value of 3.5 million euros, that the B&Bs were impounded or the permit to do business was suspended.
    There was even the case of a totally unauthorised B&B in the province of Pescara set up inside a garage. (ANSA).
