Enactment of the Teacher's Law

President Alan Garcia Perez promulgated the Teachers' Law on May 19, 1990. This law had been previously approved by the Legislative but was observed by the President, which generated protests from the Teachers' Union. In response to the observations, the Ministry of Economy issued a communiqué stating that the financial quantification of the benefits presented in the law represented amounts that required additional financing not foreseen in the current public sector budget. The law had been modified during the fourth extraordinary legislature held from February 12 to 22, 1990.
