The President of the Chamber of Deputies and Deputies, Vlado Mirosevic (PL), intends to promote modifications to the regulations of the Corporation to increase the punishment of deputies who carry out attacks. In case of physical attacks, the legislator will seek sanctions of 100% of the parliamentary allowance.
in conversation with Bio Bio Radio, Mirosevic pointed out that the current regulation is weak, in terms of punishments for attacks. “In the past, being sent to the Ethics Commission was a shame, but today it has become normal, therefore I am going to propose an increase in economic sanctions that are significant, so that they think twice,” he said. .

“My original proposal, I don’t know if they will approve me in those terms, but physical aggression, for example, I (would sanction) 100% of the diet, immediately. And what would we do with that money, to civic education in high schools”, added the legislator.
In turn, he commented that there is a “tense atmosphere” in the Lower House and that “respect has been lost.”
“There is a group that upsets the spirits and generates tensions. We have everything from beatings, where Deputy De La Carrera hit another Deputy, to verbal attacks, which is very recurring. When someone is intervening, the rest stop, interrupt and shout, ”he maintained.
Let’s remember that De la Carrera (ex-Republican Party) physically assaulted the legislator Alexis Sepulveda (Radical Party) at the end of August of this year. The Ethics Commission of the Lower House decided to apply the maximum sanction: censorship and 15% of his parliamentary allowance.
