P.R. Laws tit. 3, § 873
(1) Should a formal procedure for adjudicating bids mediate for holding an activity or event subject to this chapter, the bid specifications prepared by the dependency, public corporation or municipality, shall include a provision that would compel compliance with the provisions of this chapter. Accordingly, every dependency or corporation shall draft regulations to ensure proper compliance with this provision.
(2) In case the contracts are granted or the contributions made without the mediation of a bidding procedure, and so that the contracting of artists or the contribution of public funds by the dependency, corporation or municipality may be finalized, the documents required for contracting artists, promoters or producers for the event in question must include a statement signed by the head of the dependency or the mayor certifying that the activity in question is in compliance with the provisions of this chapter. Every dependency and corporation shall adopt the regulations needed to comply with the objectives of this chapter.
(3) Every promoter or producer of musical events defrayed by public funds shall submit to the government agency, public corporation and/or municipality a detailed report ascertaining compliance with this chapter and establishing that the percentage corresponding to autochthonous Puerto Rican music had been set aside.
