Reform in the Electoral Law is sent for processing
Posted On 20 Jun 2014
The draft amendment to the Electoral Law was admitted by the Legislative Council of Administration (CAL for its Spanish acronym). This amendment was made in order to include the subrogation of functions of the not positioned elected authorities.
The proposed reform from the Assemblywoman Rocío Valarezo (PAIS) establishes the mechanism to subrogate the regional Governors, Prefects and elected Mayors that because of proven death or physical, mental or legal disability, have not taken possession of their functions in regional, provincial and municipal decentralized autonomous governments (GAD for its Spanish acronym).
