In the package of measures announced this Wednesday within the framework of the Commission for Attention to Services in the National Assembly of People's Power (ANPP), Manuel Marrero included an imminent update of the list of activities allowed to the private sector in Cuba.
Of the 112 activities that are prohibited to be carried out until now,Marrero indicated that some will be allowed but upon compliance with certain requirements.
"That list has been updated and it has not been updated to increase many more - some are increased - butseveral of those that were prohibited, in the current list the prohibition is eliminated and some requirements are put in place"said the leader, who did not allude to the date on which the new list will be published.
"If you are capable of manufacturing such a thing, which today I import [...] we are going to do a certification process and if there is no problem, it would be better to do it here," the prime minister gave as an example.
Manuel Marrero also who also announcedthe government's willingness to gradually decentralize the approval process of new economic actors to the municipalities, something that he anticipates will reduce the time in which a new form of management is approved.
Marrero Cruz expressed the relevance of issuing new legal regulations “not to go backwards, but to continue advancing in their direction and alignment with the strategic objectives.”
“We consider that the decision to approve MSMEs was correct and that it responds to a policy of self-employed workers. "The State is not for managing chinchales", he sentenced.
“It is true that we have made mistakes, because the regulations did not limit issues that did have to be limited, such as the approval of amounts above the capacity to control and, then, irregularities in their relationship with state companies. How is it possible for a state company to rent its workshops, instead of chaining itself? That is giving up your productive capacity. What future do these workers have? How will profits increase?" he questioned.
Regarding the future, he anticipated that "there will not be an avalanche of prohibitions, but there will be order and rules to conduct these processes."
