He Neuquinizate front by Rolando Figueroa anticipated yesterday that will accompany the debate of the bill to create the Budget Stabilization Fund, but they will ask that the vice-elect, Gloria Ruiz, participate in the preparation of the 2024 budget of the Legislature. The proposal will finally not have an express procedure and will be discussed in two committeesas resolved yesterday by the Parliamentary Labor commission.

After the ANEL union’s claim to Vice Governor Marcos Koopmann and the rest of the deputies, it was agreed that the initiative would not be debated on tables in the session that will be held today at 11 and that a discussion with all parties would be guaranteed.

The controversial fund entered last week with the governor’s signature Omar Gutierrezfrom the vice Marcos Koopmann and the president of the Superior Court of Justice, Soledad Gennari. It would take 3% of the resources that reach Neuquén through national co-participation to allocate them to balance the budgetary fluctuations of the three powers.

Although the foundations state the need to provide more funds to the Judiciary to strengthen its independence, it is not clear in the articles how it would be applied. Specificthe law only cuts the resources received by the Legislature from 7.5% to 6% but they are not transferred directly. The administration of the fund would be in the hands of the Ministry of Economy, that is, the government.

The legislative workers unionized in ANEL began a task retention this week and permanent assembly to demand the archive of the project, since they assure that it will defund the management that will begin in 2024, when Gloria Ruiz takes office.

According to the union’s calculations, if the law is approved, It will take 20% of the budget from the next Legislature.

After a meeting with Koopmann on Monday, there was a commitment that the proposal would not be discussed in today’s session on tables, but would take parliamentary status and be referred to the Constitutional Affairs and Budget committees.

Some deputies already announced yesterday that they will not support the Budget Stabilization Fund, among them the representatives of the FIT and some members of the Frente de Todos.

The position of Rolando Figueroa and his deputies


The novelty was that The Neuquinizate front issued a statement during the afternoon where, for the first time, the position of Rolando Figueroa, Gloria Ruiz and the space deputies in relation to the project was whitewashed.

Although they do not express explicit support, they suggest agreement with the initiative and declare themselves “in favor of accompanying the debate”. «We raise as a priority the need to guarantee the independence and autonomy of the powers, and we consider that, for the purposes of the distribution of resources, The State is one and the full functioning of its three powers must be guaranteed without imbalances that impact the role that the provincial Constitution assigns to each one,” the text says.

The statement also evaluated how “It is essential” that the elected lieutenant governor “participate in the preparation of the budget legislative for the fiscal year 2024 in order to guarantee the autonomy of the Legislative Branch in terms of ensuring salaries, recategorizations, salary improvements, the maintenance of the Quality Management system, investments and each of the programs that the future management of the “The Legislative Branch considers what it must do to fulfill its tasks.”

Among the signatures are, in addition to those of Figueroa and Ruiz, those of the current deputies Lucas Castelli (Advance), Leticia Esteves (Pro), Carlos Coggiola (Christian Democracy), Soledad Martinez (Front of All) and Ayelen Quiroga (NCN). Also from some of the elected legislators and other leaders of the political front such as Juan Luis “Pepé” Ousset and Julieta Corroza.

The session that will be held today will be with ANEL’s forceful measures still in force, so it will be limited only to entering the projects that must take parliamentary status. As happened with a previous protest, in 2015, A notary will be summoned and a recording system will be implemented to make up for the lack of stenographers.
