§ 1183. Interagency Committee—Creation

An Interagency Committee is hereby created, with the main function of coordinating matters related to the implementation of this chapter. The same shall be chaired by the Puerto Rico Police Superintendent and shall be composed by the Executive Director of the Roads Authority, the Secretary of the Department of Transportation and Public Works, the President of the Public Service Commission, and the Secretary of the Department of Labor and Human Resources. It shall be understood that the heads of the government entities included in this Committee may be represented by persons duly authorized by them to discharge the functions and responsibilities conferred in this chapter and to act or make statements on their behalf. Provided, That the Committee shall have the authority to determine, through regulations adopted to that effect, the demonstrations that due to their nature, severity or implications deserve not to be delegated, but to be handled by the very head of the agency or dependency which is a part of the said Committee.

In addition to executing what is established in this chapter, said Committee shall have the function of meeting periodically with the organizations, groups or persons that are to participate in the demonstration, at their request, in order to address any issues that may be resolved administratively, in order to eliminate the need to carry out the public impact activity, as defined in § 1182 of this title.
