Official figures: Almost 800,000 Romanians have residence in Italy
The report says that the number of Romanian-Italian marriages has fallen. While some 4,000 marriages of Italian men and Romanian women were recorded in 2006, only 2,300 were reported following Romania's EU accession.
The report shows a high birth index among Romanian immigrant women as compared to Italian ones. Some 3300 newborns with Italian fathers and Romanian mothers were reported in 2007, while the number of newborns with both parents of Romanian origin reached 10,000.
