Argentina's government has confirmed it will not be debating the proposed “Ley del Libro” (Book Law) in Congress, a bill that aimed to deregulate book pricing. Senator Patricia Bullrich revealed to Infobae that the government is prioritizing structural economic measures instead, deeming the book price legislation non-essential in the current climate. This decision effectively halts plans to lift price controls on books, potentially maintaining current affordability measures. The President has reportedly ratified this choice, signaling a firm stance against addressing the book market specifically at this time. Supporters of the law argued deregulation would boost the publishing industry, while opponents feared price hikes. The shift in focus indicates a broader economic strategy taking precedence over specific sector regulations. Further details on the structural measures being prioritized were not immediately available.
