In September, the 762 delegates of popular power will be prepared and the municipal governments will hold meetings with the factors and the community, according to Diosenis Machado, head of the Independent Department of the National Assembly in the territory.
In the accountability meeting, in addition to the criteria expressed by the voters on the delegate’s management, they can present approaches or problems related to existing situations in the community, which are received and processed according to the corresponding procedure or are resolved with popular participation.
The meeting constitutes a way to inform the voters about aspects related to the constituency, the Popular Council, the municipality, the province and the country and promotes collective analysis in the search for solutions with popular participation.
