Havana, Feb 17 (RHC) Cuba is been working on a draft Law on Enterprises since 2022, a project that will be submitted for discussion and approval in December this year by the National Assembly of People's Power.
The results of a survey conducted for that purpose of 646 state entrepreneurs, in search of the first consensus, were presented at a meeting of the Inter-Institutional Council of one of the macro-programs of the National Economic and Social Development Plan until 2030.
Alejandro Gil Fernández, Deputy Prime Minister and head of the Ministry of Economy and Planning (MEP), highlighted the importance of the process of debates and consultations that will take place throughout the national territory, to enrich the initial document, now being prepared for submission to the country's leadership.
He stressed that the call of Army General Raúl Castro Ruz to shake the socialist state enterprise, the Constitution of the Republic, the Guidelines of the Seventh Party Congress, and the Conceptualization of the Cuban Economic Model serve as a guide to establishing the principles of future legislation.
The aforementioned survey made it possible to gather the first consensus on the scope, objectives, and principles of the law.
Gil Fernández and Johana Odriozola Guitart, deputy minister of the MEP, recalled the weight of the state enterprise in the Cuban economy, as the main supplier of goods and services, which is why it must be distinguished by its efficiency and effectiveness.
Deputy Prime Minister affirmed that this law will help to put in place many things associated with the missions, governance, governing boards, Osde (higher organization of business management), allocation of resources, and powers to promote international insertion and creation of business with foreign investment, among other aspects.
At the meeting of the Interinstitutional Council of the Government, Institutionalism and Macroeconomics macro program, representatives of the academia and several organizations presented their criteria regarding the future regulations that will be submitted for discussion and approval in December this year by the National Assembly of People's Power.
