Cuban Ministries Report
Work to Parliament
Havana - Cuban
ministries and
institutions started on
Thursday to account to
Parliament, the
permanent committees of
which already completed
discussions prior to the
Second Ordinary Period
of its Seventh
Legislature.
Ministries of Foreign
Trade and Domestic Trade
are to open this process
to inform delegates of
the National Assembly of
the People's Power
(Parliament).
On Wednesday, the
Parliament committees on
Economic Affairs and
Constitutional and Legal
Issues approved the
Social Security report
to be subject to vote in
plenary session on
Saturday.
President of Parliament
Ricardo Alarcon took
part in the meeting and
ratified that the Cuban
State guarantees social
security of the people.
He explained that this
positive step is taken
as millions of people
are losing social and
economic support
worldwide due to the
global crisis.
This is a bill that
envisages rights for
all, while many people
in Latin America and
many other parts of the
world lack those rights
and lack access to
health care and
education, Alarcon
stressed. |
