Political commentator Orlando Gil of the Listin Diario says that President Hipolito Mejia has already begun to violate the agreements made during the PUCMM summit sponsored by visiting Spanish politician Felipe Gonzalez and Monsignor Agripino Nunez. He mentions that while the government has given lip service to supporting the change of hands in government, in practice several obstacles are being presented. He comments that President Mejia said that while he will send to Congress in the agreed framework of time the fiscal reform bill, this would not be a bill of consensus, but the one to be prepared by the PLD economic team. He said his role will simply be to present it to Congress, but his government technicians will not be involved in the preparation as had been agreed in the Mejia and Fernandez summit. The decision leaves the political cost of the expected increases in taxes to be carried by the incoming government. The new government argues that increased revenues are needed primarily to alleviate pressures created by the mismanagement of the salvaging of commercial banks (quasi-fiscal debt) and excessive borrowing and spending by the outgoing Mejia administration.
