Overview
- Deputies scheduled Economy Minister Luis Caputo for 12:00 on October 15, followed by Karina Milei and Health Minister Mario Lugones at 14:00 under Article 71 interpellations.
- Karina Milei was called to address leaked audios from ex-Andis head Diego Spagnuolo that name her as a presumed beneficiary of a bribery scheme at the disability agency.
- Lawmakers also summoned Caputo to explain the government’s financial arrangement with the United States and to detail elements of the 2026 budget under debate.
- Caputo’s appearance is uncertain as he is in the United States for IMF meetings, and officials have not confirmed whether he will return in time for the session.
- Substantive hearings are in doubt due to difficulties securing quorum and a pattern of no-shows, with courts declining to enforce attendance and past refusals by Caputo and Justice Minister Mariano Cúneo Libarona in the $LIBRA case.
