"Falsifying records is the" good faith "of the" consultation "for a forestry law that violates the rights of indigenous peoples?
(AIDESEP, March 9, 2011). The Chair of the National Congress Land Commission has circulated today March 9 falsified text without written date of alleged agreements with indigenous organizations on the 4141 bill "Forestry and Wildlife Law," which passed to rectify and clarify. Also, to reiterate our alternatives to the content of that project and how the call goes through "consultation."
1. The fake text (one page) has never been submitted nor signed by any of the 11 persons listed, unless the AIDESEP. Images have been copied signatures from other documents to falsify a new one. We reject this old style of politics that reveals the disorder and despair that runs the alleged "prior consultation" invented by that Land Commission, and the presence of "bad faith" that invalidates the principles of ILO Convention 169-. This has to be evaluated before the Ethics Committee of the National Congress for not repeated these unacceptable acts.
2. 5 and March 7 meetings were held with this Commission, which minutes do not really express what was discussed and agreed. Not expressed AIDESEP approach (with the support of other organizations) that what happened in the regions are workshops or hearings of dialogue that can not be regarded as the implementation of the right to consultation and consent, to which the State is obliged under the ILO Convention 169-and that this confusion will only be resolved with the enactment of the consultation framework, agreed by Congress on 19.05.2010 and that President Alan Garcia has been blocked and aims denature .
This issue is not only a desperate game estates law of logging concessions, but the fundamental right to prior consultation with various issues that can not be executed anyway. Just as we demand respect and incorporate the proposals made by indigenous delegations at these workshops, also demand that they are not used as a precedent to say that "it is not required under law for consultation" and simply replicate its methodology to make them in any way: with the participation of "individuals" and not just organizations, is "select" what can and can not debate, just three days to see hundreds of articles, in front of U.S. embassy members, denying passages that challenged and removed demanding change, among other maneuvers.
3. When you read the draft minutes of March 7, delegates of the Regional Organization of Aidesep Ucayali (ORAU) questioned the phrase "recognize the consultation process undertaken to date by the land commission, and requested changing" consultation " by "information sessions", which which reiterates the position of always AIDESEP and other organizations. Not only was not complied with the order, but in the text invented by the President of the Commission, March 9, he added "free, prior and informed." It is evident desperation to avoid a repeat of the case of Colombia, which passed a forestry law was declared unconstitutional because it does not comply with the free, prior and informed of Convention 169. Childishly thought avoid this by placing the stamp of "prior consultation" on any document in the hearing process. If a complaint or not, any future forestry law, we will see later, not only on prior consultation, but also on the compliance or non-possession rights (not just property), the issue of timber estates, the effective financial support (or not) to community forest management, respect for self-employed people (or in voluntary isolation) between still other unresolved issues.
reject the version of the Land Commission, that AIDESEP is "self-excluded" from the process. On the contrary, we are active, but not to submit to maneuver, and it is for our demands and arguments, that the bill is improving in part, but you need to change in substantive issues, we will defend the national audience of "the first week May "as agreed and not the "2, 3, 4 May 2011" that the said commission also imposed in the text a forgery.
