Draghi quit after three of the big parties in his coalition, Matteo Salvini's right-wing League, ex-premier Silvio Berlusconi's Forza Italia (FI) and the 5-Star Movement (M5S), failed to take part in a confidence vote in the Senate on a resolution backing him on Wednesday.
President Sergio Mattarella is meeting ower House Speaker Roberto Fico and Senate Speaker Elisabetta Casellati to discuss the arrangements for the dissolution of parliament later on Thursday.
