The government rules out further attempts to repeal Expiry

The executive branch "will not take any initiative as to repeal the amnesty law," said Secretary of the Presidency, Alberto Breccia.

The governor said that if there are other proposals from other areas aimed at repealing the law will be examined "seriously" and will require them to "the broadest political consensus", was quoted by the website of the Presidency.

The secretariat of President meets regularly with the Human Rights Directorate of the Ministry of Education and Culture, Foreign Minister and representatives of the defense portfolio to achieve full compliance with implementing the ruling of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights.

It is recalled that the agency ruled against Uruguay in the case Gelman and noted, among other things, that it was wrong to keep the Amnesty Law in force, since it is not adapted to the international treaties signed by the country.

Breccia remembered today, like what the ruling said, the amnesty law, should not mean an "obstacle" to carry out investigations in cases of human rights violations during the dictatorship.

The Executive passed a resolution weeks ago annulled and revoked on grounds of manifest illegality, all administrative acts that file causes were considered to be covered by the Shelf.
