The Mayor of Santo Domingo East, Juan de los Santos has announced that he will submit a resolution to the Council, rescinding the refuse collection contract awarded to Pro-Hygiene and Health Services Company (SEHISA) and will ask for there to be a public bidding for the sanitation contracts. The new company would need to be technically and economically capable of doing a good job, said the Mayor. This announcement comes after days of accusations and counter-accusations following the announcement that SEHISA, a company with no prior experience of sanitation, was given the contracts without public bidding, and it was alleged that de los Santos had family connections to the firm.

De los Santos has denied any wrongdoing or any connections to SEHISA.
