In 2005 he became responsible director for the political newspaper La Discussione. In the 2006 general election Catone was elected in the Chamber of Deputies into the Forza Italia list and he joined the DCA-NPSI group.
On 20 January 2011 he joined the Responsible Initiative group and on 5 May he was appointed Undersecretary to the Ministry for the Environment, Land and Sea of the Berlusconi Cabinet.
On 9 May 2001, Catone was arrested together with his brother Massimo and other twelve people, only to be released the following day, along with all others, because the conditions for detention were not met. Catone was charged for two fraudulent bankruptcies by ₤25 billion each and the improper obtaining of ₤12 billion of non-repayable funding through the presentation of false documentation. On 23 February 2012 he was convicted in first instance. The verdict was overturned by the Italian Court of Cassation, which acquitted him, on 3 March 2015.
In 2003, he was indicted for the failure of Abatec, a company that manufactured diaper machines. Catone was acquitted for 9 of the 12 counts, while the remaining 3 were declared prescribed.
