Travel abroad with tickets and per diem included is only one of the privileges of the National Assembly deputies .

From January 2015 to June 2018, the National Assembly has paid more than 2 million dollars in travel for deputies and other officials of that body.

They have attended meetings on gender equity, recycling, leadership, education and security, dairy congresses, among others.
