Therefore, as a deputy, I will formally reach out to the Comptroller and the Ministry to clarify specifically which actions they intend to freeze and for how long, to provide certainty to the public,\u201d Montalva stated.<\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"6\">\u201cIt cannot be that under the pretext of reviewing, governance is paralyzed; governments are elected to govern and cannot halt services because that also impedes efforts to meet the most urgent demand, which is housing, the housing solution,\u201d he emphasized.<\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"7\">The legislator views it as contradictory that Kast is out in the field saying that reconstruction must be accelerated while at the same time, the housing authority is issuing instructions to freeze all activities.<\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"8\">\u201cThis makes no sense, and that\u2019s why we will request explanations and demand oversight from the Comptroller,\u201d he reiterated.<\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"9\">The deputy made it clear that he fully supports conducting audits and reviews, but suggested that \u00abwith one hand, we must audit, review, and supervise, while with the other hand, we must work and progress.\u00bb <\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"10\">\u201cOne cannot paralyze the other,\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"11\">In a message that accompanied the video, the parliamentarian pointed out that \u201cthe housing emergency cannot wait for audits without deadlines.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"12\">\u201cWe will formally reach out to the Comptroller to demand that continuity of service is respected. We cannot gamble with the needs of families,\u201d he asserted.<\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"13\">According to Bio B\u00edo Chile, the circular aims to organize and review the flow of institutional documentation and administrative actions with the suspension of operations.<\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"14\">Servius would have the opportunity to dispatch documents to meet legal deadlines and requirements from oversight or judicial bodies, or those deemed \u201curgent for service continuity,\u201d however, they are obligated to inform the Undersecretariat\u2019s cabinet in advance.<\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"15\">Officials who fail to comply with the orders risk \u00abfacing consequences associated with administrative responsibilities.\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async defer crossorigin=\"anonymous\" src=\"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js#xfbml=1&#038;version=v14.0&#038;appId=91647977268&#038;autoLogAppEvents=1\" nonce=\"oICed85h\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Original article: Montalva denuncia que Minvu \u201ccongela toda su gesti\u00f3n administrativa\u201d mientras&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":13479,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.elciudadano.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/el-ciudadano-img-1.png","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-13478","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-internacionales-2"},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/elpregonerodechile.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13478","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/elpregonerodechile.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/elpregonerodechile.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elpregonerodechile.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elpregonerodechile.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=13478"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/elpregonerodechile.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13478\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elpregonerodechile.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/13479"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/elpregonerodechile.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=13478"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elpregonerodechile.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=13478"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elpregonerodechile.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=13478"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
