And we do it, not arbitrarily as it was before our government, but on the basis of objective and meritocratic criteria proposed by the National Higher Education Authority, with respect to the Institutions themselves and the taxpayer. Thus, we favor the optimal utilization of the available resources and the transparency in the distribution, taking another step in addition to what is provided by the law for the regular subsidy of the HEIs based on objective criteria and applying it during the extraordinary one “.
