About this statute

This provision identifies Law 1437 of 2011 and states that it enacts the Administrative Procedure and Contentious Administrative Procedure Code. This provision states the purpose of Part One: to protect and guarantee people’s rights and freedoms, the public interest, constitutional compliance by authorities, state aims, and efficient democratic administration. This article says which bodies and people are covered by the first part of the Code, calls them authorities, and says authorities must use the Code’s procedures unless special laws apply. Las autoridades deben interpretar y aplicar el procedimiento administrativo según los principios constitucionales y legales, y actuar con igualdad, imparcialidad, buena fe, moralidad, participación, responsabilidad, transparencia, publicidad, coordinación, eficacia y celeridad. Administrative proceedings may be started by petitioners, by people acting under a legal duty, or by authorities on their own initiative.
