Summary of the bill.
Law 47 of 1946 would incorporate school textbook reuse into the national teaching resources service. The bill would also make reuse a responsibility of the Ministry of Education (Ministerio de Educación) and require schools to allow it when approved content has not changed substantially. It would establish a book lending program and give the Consumer Protection and Competition Defense Authority (Autoridad de Protección al Consumidor y Defensa de la Competencia) jurisdiction over exclusive supplier arrangements at private schools.
