The MAS talks about a short law until next week to preselect magistrates

The MAS bench in the Senate is about to finalize a short law that allows resuming the pre-selection of magistrates, although it is unknown if this norm will have the consensus of all the political forces in the Assembly. Meanwhile, the president described a part of his bench in Deputies as “a thorn in his shoe”

“Hopefully next week better days will be in sight and we can draw a short law to expedite (the judicial election), logically it is not the solution to the structural problems of what justice is going through, however, we believe that the judicial authorities should no longer be or they should not be functional to the governments on duty”, revealed the first vice president of the Senate, Gladys Alarcón.

The Assembly suspended the registration of candidates on two occasions to magistrates, the first was on April 12, when a constitutional court in Beni paralyzed the process; then, on April 27, when another regulation had already been drawn up, the Plurinational Constitutional Court (TCP) once again ordered all the work to be halted and since then no progress could be made.

Referring to the legislative problems, the president, Luis Arce, regretted the actions of some deputies and highlighted the behavior of the senators who understood the work that must be done. “It’s a stone in the shoe,” he said.

“Unfortunately I have found more echo in the Senate than in our bench of Deputies, so Let’s hope that time can mature them and we can already be counting on your active vote.”, the president said on this point in his meeting with the directors of the media.

This Wednesday it became known that the masismo is about to conclude a bill which would be presented this Thursday and approved immediately, although they do not have a consensus with the opposition political forces.

The president of the State, Luis Arce, said on Tuesday night that in order to to reform justice requires a great national agreementbut so far the call for that political summit that would put an end to the conflicts regarding the pre-selection of candidates for magistrates has not come out.
