Chile debates a state of emergency of up to eight months without congressional approval
José Antonio Kast's government indicated on Tuesday it was willing to amend the constitutional security reform bill it submitted to the Senate on August 17, after the proposal drew objections both from the opposition and from parties within its own coalition.
This, after the cross-cutting criticisms of the project by its authoritarian dyes.
The proposed project to combat organized crime, entered last week, allows the president to decree a state of emergency for eight months, without prior consultation with Congress. The post Kast opens up to changes in security reform after objection to a new state of emergency appeared first on THE NATIONAL.
The Undersecretary of the Interior explained that the modification of the Magna Carta is necessary since “our states of emergency are not designed, because they are from the year 80, for organized crime.”
