Santiago senator Francisco Dominguez Brito criticized yesterday in the Senate that government authorities are indifferent in complying with the laws of state, as reported in Hoy. He said this can be sometimes explained by clientelism or submissiveness. He criticized that neither the Controller of the Republic nor the Chamber of Accounts, the body that audits government spending, have been able to guarantee the fulfillment of the Procurement Law and the legislation that establishes the percentage that must be used for public works in municipalities.
For many in the DR, the law is only applied when convenient, he said. "If this continues to be so, then reforming the Constitution will not contribute to national development," he said.
He said the present political leadership needs to set the example. He called for all sectors to commit to respect the norms and laws.
