The Dominican Revolutionary Party (PRD) has handed in to the government, 10 proposals taking into account the rules for the application of Law 169-14 concerning naturalization.
PRD members suggest that a personal identity document from the country of origin or at least a legalized document from one of the parents of the applicant must be presented to demonstrate that the Dominican state does not create the condition of statelessness.
PRD president, Miguel Vargas, suggested that the Executive Branch declare a state of alert, and order the strengthening of all security measures in the border area, during the foreigner regularization period to prevent a mass influx of illegal immigrants wishing to take irregular advantage of the free process to gain legal status in the Dominican Republic.
Vargas requested that the application process be supervised by a Committee of Monitoring and Evaluation consisting of a representative of the Catholic Church, five representatives from Civil Society, three media directors representatives and a representative from each party that hold seats in Congress.
He suggested that a procedure be established that assigns a category for each application based on the type of status requested or demonstrated by the applicant.
He proposed that a “Pact for the Control and Development of the Border Area,” be developed between the social and political forces of the country.
The proposals were delivered to the Presidential Palace by a commission, made up of the legal director of the PRD, Salim Ibarra; spokesman Victor Gomez Casanova; lawyer Jose Miguel Vasquez; and ex-Senator Tonty Rutinel.
