A Uruguayan senator has accused the Environment Ministry of "hiding information," vowing to summon the minister to a legislative committee. Martín Lema, a legislator from the National Party, stated that he will "convene the minister to the commission and demand answers and transparency" regarding outstanding information requests.

Lema's accusation points to a lack of responsiveness from the ministry, which he claims has failed to provide necessary details despite formal requests. The senator emphasized his commitment to ensuring accountability and transparency in governmental operations.

The planned committee hearing aims to press the minister for the withheld information, shedding light on the ministry's actions and potentially addressing environmental concerns that require public disclosure. The senator's move underscores a push for greater governmental accountability in Uruguay.
