In any case, the field will try to capture the attention of the senators and the political opposition as a whole, since it intends to install the debate about the constitutionality or not of the withholdings and at the same time, make it clear that the power to set these taxes belongs to the Legislative Power.
In dialogue with Ambit, Paul Cervinational deputy of Together for Change for the Province of Neuquén, assured that “the Executive Power lost the possibility of defining the withholdings.” “For now, a definition of Justice is expected after the presentation made by one of the entities in the field, but it is a discussion that should be given because since the fall of the Budget Law, Congress is the only which can set withholdings. However, since there are no commissions formed and there is no bicameral, no debate can be started”, argument.
The project that Cervi mentions is the one that was introduced on March 18 by the national deputy for San Luis, Alejandro Cacace, who has also just presented another, quite controversial one, in which he proposes to “dollarize” the economy. Regarding what was proposed on the subject of withholdings, the radical legislator describes that “any rate to collect export duties that is set or has been set to take effect from 2022, without a law of Congress that establishes them, is unconstitutional.”
All this will be discussed today in the Senate, where once again the countryside will be the protagonist. In dialogue with this newspaper, the senator for the province of Entre Ríos, Alfredo de Angeli, assured that work must be done on a legislative agenda that takes into account the concerns of the productive sector, such as fire management, the wetlands, the Warrants Law, the seed law, a law that modifies the working conditions for the regional economy sector and, without a doubt, a law that allows the gradual reduction of withholdings”.
Regarding that point in particular, the senator specified that “they should go down little by little, because an abrupt decision cannot be made.” And he considered: “We need a State policy so that the agricultural sector has predictability, regardless of the government in power.” It is worth remembering that the Agroindustrial Development Law, which the ruling party presented in a timely manner and which should have been dealt with in extraordinary sessions, enjoys parliamentary status. If passed, it would be a breath of fresh air as it would provide fiscal and tax benefits. The idea of the sector is that, when the time comes when the debates related to agriculture begin, there is political support to promote the changes that they consider essential to achieve the agro-industrial development that the countryside demands.
