CNE president Tibisay Lucena pointed out "nothing will thwart a clear, truly reliable process in the popular consultation." In statements for the "En Confianza" TV program, the official said audit procedures have been reinforced, and efforts are being made to hold three or four debates between representatives of organizations that support, and those that oppose, the proposed constitutional reform. Lucena added the project, already approved by the legislative body, is expected to be presented on Friday, when the campaign will begin. Referring to it, the CNC president noted that most important is to widely spread the contents of the constitutional changes among the population. ef dig mem mf PL-17 * ================================================================= NY Transfer News Collective * A Service of Blythe Systems Since 1985 - Information for the Rest of Us Our main website: http://www.blythe.org List Archives: http://blythe-systems.com/pipermail/nytr/ Subscribe: http://blythe-systems.com/mailman/listinfo/nytr =================================================================
