A project by the head of the Frente de Todos block, Máximo Kirchner, to limit the use and prohibit real estate developments
for between 30 and 60 years
on burned-out land - accidentally or on purpose - ignited a controversy in Congress.
The text was presented with the support of the two federal interblocks but in Together for Change they denounce that it is
"excessive, confiscatory and unconstitutional
.
"
The initiative was scheduled to be discussed this Wednesday in the Natural Resources commission.
However,
over time, he suspended.
"A mess was made when the initiative was transcended and signatories began to drop," they warned from the opposition.
In the ruling party they assured that it was suspended because the president of the commission, Leonardo Grosso, was stranded in Bolivia due to a strike by airmen.
"
It will be rescheduled for next Tuesday
,
" they
confided.
The project devised by Máximo Kirchner establishes that in case of fires in wetlands, protected areas, or forests
native or implanted, it is prohibited
for 60 years to
make modifications in
the use and destination
that said surfaces possessed prior to the fire.
It also prohibits "the division, subdivision, subdivision or parceling, total or partial, or
any other real estate undertaking, other than leasing and sale
, in the case of private lands.
In the case of public lands, it also prohibits their sale.
In turn, it prevents
"any agricultural activity that is different from the use and destination that the surface had at the time of the fire."
In the case of "agricultural areas, prairies, pastures, scrublands and in areas where building structures intermingle with vegetation outside of the strictly urban or structural environment",
the prohibition applies for 30 years.
"The objective is primarily to guarantee the conditions for the restoration of the burned surfaces, and we understand that it is essential for this that said surfaces maintain the use of the land they had prior to the fire", they assure in the fundamentals of the project that has the signatures of the head of the Federal interblock,
Eduardo "Bali" Bucca
;
his peer from the Unidad y Equidad Federal block,
José Luis Ramón,
among others.
Together for Change denounces that the text "ends up being confiscatory and unconstitutional" because "it prevents the use of the properties for an excessive time."
“Limiting land use does not contribute anything to prevent or fight fires.
On the contrary, it promotes the dangerous use of fires for criminal purposes ", pointed out from the Civic Coalition.
For the main opposition bank, in addition, the initiative "undermines private property and the autonomy of municipalities and provinces", "generates legal insecurity because the freezing of land can occur at any time due to a fortuitous event" and
"exclusively punishes To the owner".
