The Attorney General’s Office asked to declare 41 articles of the current National Development Plan (2022 – 2026) unconstitutional due to procedural defects, since the reports of accidental commissions were not published in the Congressional gazette one day before the discussion in the plenary session of the Senate of the Republic.
According to the Public Ministry, this goes against what the Constitution orders in its article 161, since it had to be ready and published prior to the debate that took place on May 5, 2023. The concern is that there was not enough time to know the text.
“It is a requirement of significant importance, it cannot be simply discarded as a mere formality, since it strengthens and deepens the democratic system, as well as responds to the need to rationalize the activity of Congress. “True deliberation implies that parliamentarians inform themselves and acquire knowledge about what their decision will involve,” said prosecutor Margarita Cabello.
Cabello insisted that in total 41 of the 372 articles of the plan must be declared unconstitutional, since it is not possible to return the document to Congress to reverse the processing processes because the constitutional deadline of three months to approve it would not be met.
