According to the parliamentarians, this law has achieved that more than 2,500 families have the deeds of their land, which means US$8.3 million that these families have as legal security. These families have not had their deeds for more than 30 years and have always had the nightmare of not being able to inherit their land, their houses.

On july 8, 2021, the Special Transitory Law for the Regularization of Lotifications and Parcels for Residential Use was issued. This regulation establishes that such commercialized land may be regularized in accordance with the provisions of the law.
