DiCo, an acronym for "Diritti e doveri delle persone stabilmente conviventi" (Rights and Duties for Stably Cohabiting People), refers to a bill presented to the Senate of Italian Parliament on 8 February 2007 by the Prodi II Cabinet, concerning a number of rights for heterosexual and homosexual cohabiting couples.The proposal falls short of the civil unions introduced in several other European countries in recent years.
