The Permanent Commission of Industry, Commerce and Free Trade Zones of the Senate in the Dominican Republic is fast-tracking the report of the Bill of Public-Private Partnerships that have been created in collaboration with representatives of the private sector and the Ministry of the Presidency.
The new law is set to "establish a regulatory framework that regulates the initiation, selection, awarding, hiring, execution, monitoring and extinction of public-private partnerships". The project consisting of 95 articles states that the Public Administration will be regulated by the Executive Branch, decentralized and autonomous non-financial institutions, social security institutions, non-financial public companies, and city councils.
