Neney Cabrera, of the bloc of deputies of the PRD opposition party, says that the Political Parties Bill could be implemented with only RD$150 million, not RD$1 billion, as commented by the Central Electoral Board (JCE) president. One of the most expensive innovations of the bill would be the obligation for the JCE to fund the primaries of the political parties.
Cabrera questioned the fact that the discussion regarding the Law of Political Parties and Groups has been limited to whether the PRD wants it and the PLD does not, and this downplays the benefits that are contained in the law, he said, as reported in Diario Libre.
