Presidency Technical Secretary Temistocles Montas says that once Congress passes the fiscal reform it will no longer be a topic of debate or conflict in the country. This is wishful thinking on Montas's behalf, considering that the reform has managed to unite both the public and private sector against the plan ever since it was announced. Montas however did point out that the reforms of 2004 and 2005 were followed by periods in which nobody spoke about the reform. Montas added that failure to pass such a reform would be playing with the country's economic stability. He continued by saying that people will pay their taxes and continue as if nothing has changed. Montas also assured that the reform will have no negative effects on the country, and is quoted in Hoy newspaper as saying that the reform will not in any way affect the country's entrance into the DR-CAFTA agreement.
