Peruvian Prime Minister Alberto Otarola on Tuesday attended a Congress Constitution Commission's meeting to support the Executive Branch's request for special powers to legislate on matters of public safety, disaster risk-Global El Niño management, meritocracy, as well as social infrastructure and quality of projects.
On July 28, 2023, the Executive Branch presented the Bill No. 5642/2023-PE, which is intended to delegate powers to the Executive Branch in order to legislate on matters of public safety, disaster risk-Global El Niño management, meritocracy, as well as social infrastructure and quality of projects, for a period of 120 calendar days.
The working group's session chaired by Martha Moyano —a legislator from Fuerza Popular (Popular Force) party— began at 10:30 a.m. (local time) and took place at the parliamentary chamber.
