The changes presented by the delegation of Colorado representatives will imply an approximate cost of 100 million dollars.
This Tuesday at 6:00 p.m. a delegation of leaders and legislators from the Colorado party (pc) appeared at the Executive Tower to meet with the president Luis Lacalle Pou. At the meeting, the colorados presented the modifications they understood convenient to accompany the social security reform. Of these, the president accepted three.
As reported, among these three proposals, one is linked to the minimum number of years worked; another is a correction to an error in the design of the project; and the rest refers to Social Security Assistance Tax (IASS).
The Colorado senator and leader of Ciudadanos, Adrian Pena, He expressed at a press conference that “it was a very productive meeting” and that they had already been “exchanging on these issues.” According to the legislator, the changes applied will have an approximate cost of 100 million dollars.
In the last hours, the colorados had synthesized their original draft, which contained ten changes to the reform, leaving only five final proposals, ordered in a ranking of priorities. According to PC members, they do not affect the structure of the initiative.
Lacalle Pou’s negotiation with Manini Ríos reopened the project, according to the Colorado Party
The reconsideration of the colorados arose from the inconvenience generated within the political force that Lacalle Pou himself bilaterally agreed to the changes in the bill demanded by the leader and senator of Town meeting (AC), Guido Manini Riosin order to unlock an agreement with his party.
In the traditional party, the fact that these negotiations have been turned away from the other members of the Multicolor Coalitionfell badly and was seen as a reopening to changes in the original project that had been agreed upon, so they allowed themselves to submit their own objections to the reform.
Last Monday, a bicameral meeting took place between the legislators of the PC, seeking to refine the proposals that were finally presented to the president, and determining the cost of each one of them, for “not generate expectations of something that cannot be financed later”, neither “bring problems to the executive branch“Peña had pointed out.
