Rather, the Government enacted complementary rules that are causing delays in the processing of compensation to victims, such as: Law 3275, which determines a new deadline for the submission of requests but also determines a delay in the procedure of compensating victims who had already applied for reparation before the new deadline; Law 3449, which determines that the CONREVIP Presidency, which was under the Ministry for Presidency, is now under the Ministry for Justice, and that two members from the legislative power become members of CONREVIP, which involves further delays in providing the victims with reparation; and Statutory Decree 29214, which establishes new deadlines to CONREVIP causing further delays.

政府所做的是制订补充条例，这些条例造成了处理对受害者赔偿问题的拖延，如：第3275号法律，该法为提交申请规定了一个新的限 期，但也使在新限期之前已经提出赔偿申请的受害者的赔偿程序被拖延；第3449号法律，该法规定，原受总统府部领导的CONREVIP现在改为受司法部领导，立法机关的两名成员成为CONREVIP的成员，这使得向受害者提供赔偿被进一步拖延；第29214号法令，其中为CONREVIP规定了新的限期，因而造成了更多拖延。
