More than 15 animal protection organizations met yesterday with the Commission of Assembly members who work in the preparation of the new draft law of animal rights. At the meeting there was a unique position, that animals are subjects of law and protection of the central and sub-national levels; and that cruelty should be penalized, said Brito. "Framework law will incorporate criminal offences against animal cruelty, allowing municipalities to punish the aggressors", she said.

Meanwhile José Alberto Gonzales, President of the Senate, argued that that instance will prepare a homogeneous rule in favor of animals. In this context, the representative of animals SOS, Susana Carpi, warned that it is you should be careful with what will be approved.

He explained that paragraph 5 of article 302 of the political Constitution of the State delegate’s exclusive powers to the municipalities for the protection of animals. "A figure of animal cruelty should be punishable with jail". Carpi noted the points that includes the first version of the framework law. "It seems an ambiguous and contradictory, project that violates municipal competencies, it is unconstitutional"

Municipalities may not penalize acts of cruelty against animals, there is a law framework which establish these cases as criminal offences, said Mrs. In July 2014, the Chamber of Deputies approved the law on defense of animals in large.

'Protection of animals is the responsibility of the municipalities'

The protection of domestic animals is the responsibility of municipalities and not so central Government, yesterday clarified the Constitutionalist Williams Bioscope. The political Constitution of the State marked as exclusive jurisdiction the protection of domestic animals to the municipalities. "The central level can do much about pets", said the lawyer.

He pointed out that once the municipalities have a punitive law, which is not necessarily economic, they can go to a law of the central level which is the criminal code. "It can sorting in the criminal code the mistreatment of animals. That context is the Argentine legislation", it said.

As well as this country who worked his legislation, which penalizes the abuse and acts of cruelty to animals in 1954, the Federal Republic of Germany raised the protection of animals, especially domestic, in 2012. "If included in the Criminal Code of Bolivia, the figure of crime of maltreatment and cruelty against animals, can be an advance on their protection", said Bioscope, for whom a law is a good initiative.
