Cabinet Chief Manuel Adorni presented the final report of the Consejo de Mayo, promoted by Javier Milei's Government. The document outlines changes to the Expropriations Law, rural land regime, and educational reform with greater provincial autonomy. These proposals will form the basis of bills for Congress in 2026 and extraordinary sessions.
The Consejo de Mayo, convened by President Javier Milei with representatives from business, unions, legislature, and 18 provinces, concluded its work with a final report presented by Manuel Adorni on December 9, 2025. The document translates eight of the ten points from the Pacto de Mayo into bills, focusing on the inviolability of private property, land regulation, and educational restructuring.
On expropriations, it proposes a new law calculating indemnities at pre-announcement market value, updated by the Consumer Price Index and appraised by independents. It also speeds up evictions in cases of precarious tenure, intrusion, or usurpation, eliminating administrative delays. For popular neighborhoods, it suggests removing the ban on selling lots to legal entities, allowing sales to cooperatives or companies to expedite regularization, though critics warn of real estate speculation risks.
Regarding rural lands, the report pushes for repealing limits on foreign purchases to dynamize the market and attract investments in extensive productions and renewables. In fire management, it eliminates the 30-to-60-year prohibition on changing productive land use after fires, arguing it discourages economic recovery. It also advocates for free exploitation of strategic resources, harmonizing labor regulations without local hiring quotas for mining projects like lithium and copper.
In education, national minimum contents are set, but with autonomy for provinces and schools in curricula, involving families. Modalities like distance and hybrid education are enabled under supervision, and census evaluations at secondary school end are reinstated with public results.
Additionally, the labor reform includes eliminating ultractivity in agreements, prioritizing local pacts, adjustments in agrarian contracts and for platform delivery workers, and repealing obsolete norms. The Government assures it will not significantly alter unions' roles, focusing on job creation and seeking agreements with the CGT.
