What is not clear about the ruling party is whether it will continue the anti-bar project "on tables", that is, without the debate and the opinion of the party. the Commission. In this case, it will depend on the strong support of the opposition.

In the list of subjects that Macri will include in the decree that will sign the convocation of extraordinary personalities the personal property project, whose approval is a priority for the government and the governors, since it is a tax with shared participation (60% for the provinces 40% for the nation). The project will also be discussed, which recently had a half-sanction in the Senate promoted by the Justicialista bloc, which tax contributions to cooperatives and mutuals are reduced by 6 to 3%.

The government wants to advance the campaign funding reform project. Strictly speaking, it is an initiative that has the support of the opposition, insofar as it does not only involve the trivialization of contributions, but also that companies contribute (now blank) to political campaigns. .

After the scandal of the notebooks and the irregularities that were evident in Cambiemos' last campaign, party financing was a shared concern in a similar proportion between the ruling party and the main opposition. So much so that there is an agreement that on Thursday, December 6, a new project for the deputies will be debated during this same session, containing the one having obtained the opinion of the commission in the Senate; so that it can be converted into law at another sitting in preparation for December 13 or 20 in the Senate.

Macri, at the insistence of the Minister of Justice, Germán Garavano; will also be included in the list the reform of the Code of Criminal Procedure, which also has an average sanction of the Senate and already had the opinion of the Commission of Criminal Legislation of the Deputies.

In any case, there are two subjects that are still in badysis and that can be included in extraordinary: the law on seedss, of particular interest to the secretary of agribusiness, Luis Miguel Etchevehere; and the law on rent, announced by Mauricio Macri but seems to be relegated by strong pressure from the Secretary for Economic Policy, Miguel Braun, cousin of Marcos Peña.

For this reason, this Friday will be a meeting between his boss, the Minister of Finance, Nicolás Dujovne; and Housing Secretary Iván Kerr.
