The Fortress withdrew yesterday the appointment of Mr. Rafael Machargo as interim secretary of the Department of Natural and Environmental Resources (DRNA), when it was revealed that the process failed to comply with the Political Code.
And it is that to be appointed as interim secretary, Machargo had to meet any of three conditions: be in line of succession after the departure of the former secretary Tania Vázquez, be a career or trusted employee in the agency or lead a division of the DRNA . Machargo did not comply with any of them.
“It could not be designated on an interim basis. I warned him and requested that La Fortaleza withdraw the letter from his appointment, ”popular senator Cirilo Tirado told Meter, at the time he labeled the situation as “a tragicomedy. “
“What has been shown is that improvisation and haste reign, the result of disorganization in the Government by internal fights, changes in work teams. All this has caused these errors, ”he said.
Hours later, La Fortaleza submitted the appointment of Cynthia Rivera Morales, who works at the Solid Waste Authority, as interim, and was confirmed by the Senate.
