Licencias ambientales y consultas previas se tramitarían de forma simultanea: esto dice borrador de decreto del Gobierno De la Espriella

The national government, led by President Abelardo de la Espriella, has released a draft decree proposing that environmental licensing and prior consultation processes for large-scale initiatives be conducted simultaneously. The measure aims to streamline the administrative requirements for major projects by allowing these two regulatory steps to occur in parallel rather than sequentially.

This proposal represents a shift in the regulatory framework for project approvals. By integrating these processes, the government seeks to expedite the timeline for large initiatives, though the draft remains under public consideration to evaluate the implications of this procedural change.
