Chilean Committee of Constitutional Experts Continues Debates on Content of new Magna Carta

 

Havana, April 10 (RHC) - The constitutional experts in charge of drafting the new Magna Carta of Chile continue their debates on the content of the future fundamental law on Monday.

In the morning session, the subcommittee on Principles, Civil and Political Rights, was supposed to analyze what concerns Chapter I, entitled Fundamentals of the Constitutional Order, but the meeting was suspended at the last moment.

The afternoon will be dedicated to the discussion on future economic, social, cultural and environmental rights, which will be enshrined in the draft text intended to replace the one in force since the military dictatorship (1973-1990).

Later, the Secretariat for Citizen Participation will deliver a report with the proposals made by social, union and humanitarian organizations, among others, to be included in the draft.

At the end of the day, a press conference will be held with the participation of the president of the committee, Verónica Undurraga, and the rector of the University of Chile, Rosa Devés.

The commission of 24 experts must conclude its work in the first days of May, before the election of the constitutional advisers. These advisers will be in charge of giving final form to the new Magna Carta, which will be submitted to a plebiscite next December.

On that occasion, the Chilean population will decide by secret and obligatory vote whether or not to approve the new law of laws.
