Written by Evelyn Alas

The Treasury Commission issued a favorable opinion for the creation of the Special Law for the Contracting of Public Works with Inclusive Financing, in order to establish special conditions for the awarding and execution of projects in which costs are contemplated in their design, construction, supervision and, in some cases, operation and maintenance.

The legislators explained that the regulation will allow the implementation in the country of a novel process for the acquisition and awarding of construction projects.

They said that the Law will make it possible for national or foreign financial entities, private corporations or contractors to make offers to finance and execute this type of construction.

The contracting modality with financing included seeks to promote an orderly and sustained growth of the economy, create new sources of work and development to increase the national patrimony and ensure the welfare of the population, through the execution of necessary and innovative works.
