Rio Grande 06/12/2024.- Although the presentation of the collective protection appeal against the gas tariff was partially successful in suspending supply cuts due to non-payment, on the other hand, the national government’s lawyers challenged the judge in the amparo, because supposedly there is a lack of deeper details that support the request to suspend the increases.
They are two parallel issues, says Moises Solorza, he is secretary of energy of the province and responsible for the Boca de Pozo portal, in reference to the latest information arising from the Secretary of Energy of the Nation, dependent on the Ministry of Economy headed by Luis Caputo. .
«We have had news from the Secretary of Energy, who talks about the appeals that have been made to the collective protection that is, in the Comodoro Rivadavia Court of Appeals, together with that of Caleta Olivia, they are analyzing which of the protections of Patagonia is going to be the one that is taken, but unfortunately there is no good news for the protection of Tierra del Fuego because as of this presentation there were two challenges to Judge Borruto.
This information was not published anywhere and neither has the state prosecutor’s office provided information about it, the text of the protection is not known and the billings continue to arrive and with increases stipulated in the tariff tables that are in force and that is not within the protection, there is only the prohibition of cuts for non-payment.
It must be clarified that after the presentation of the protection, the National Energy Secretariat published Resolution 92, published in this medium, where it was reported that from May 1 to October 31, energy bills will arrive without subsidies to Tierra del Fuego.
Solorza points out that bills for lower-income people are going to arrive with monumental increases. In December of last year, this medium published a report on what was coming and we titled it “the threshold of an energy catastrophe.”
The former official requested that the state prosecutor’s office take action on the matter and appear before the Court of Appeals to reinforce the arguments of the protection so that it prospers, because in short it was never socialized, we do not know what the content is, thousands gathered of signatures and we never saw the content of the protection.
Finally, he pointed out that “we would like to know what alternative tools are being implemented to accompany this. On the agenda for today’s session in the Provincial Legislature, I do not see any tool or any instrument that has occurred to you. to no political bloc to accompany in case the collective protection is voided because those who will be left with the increases and the debts will be the neighbors.
