In the suffrage will participate the delegates of the Municipal Assemblies of People's Power of the whole country, who, according to article 75 of the Cuban Constitution, will vote for those who will be responsible for executive-administrative government of the provinces for a period of five years.
The State Council also approved the Decree-Law 'On mechanization, agricultural drainage and water supply to animals', which aims to guarantee the legal basis for organizing the development of these activities, sources said.
The regulation also aims to contribute to a more rational use of water, improve hydraulic infrastructure and agricultural equipment, as well as increase productivity and the use of advanced technologies.
