Comptroller’s report motivated the constitutional complaint
On May 20, the Comptroller General of the Republic submitted a report to Congress where he gave an account of an alleged constitutional violation committed by the First Vice President and Minister of Development and Social Inclusion, Dina Boluarte. The document was also sent to the member of the Executive.
The report warns of an alleged violation of article No. 126 of the Political Constitution of Peru, which states the following: “The ministers cannot exercise any other public function, except the legislative one. (…) The ministers cannot be managers of their own interests or those of third parties, nor carry out lucrative activity, nor intervene in the direction or management of companies or private associations”.
Specifically, it is accused Dina Boluarte of having intervened in the management of the private association Apurimac Departmental Club while holding the position of Minister of Development and Social Inclusion. This would represent an alleged violation of the Constitution for carrying out external work in the private sphere while she was a public official.
