Overview
- The Cámara de Diputados is debating the Executive’s request on Tuesday after the Constitution Commission approved a majority substitute that trims the original 66-item, 120-day petition to 20 items and a 90-day term focused on citizen security and El Niño response.
- Several parliamentary groups have made their votes conditional on a clear public guarantee from the Senate that it will not substantially alter what Diputados approves, with Rossana Alayza saying there will be no faculties if the Senate does not signal that commitment.
- Juntos por el Perú and other critics argue the delegation must not become a blank check and that wide economic, labor, tax and environmental changes need full parliamentary debate; Juntos por el Perú has filed a minority proposal to send the majority text to archive.
- Fuerza Popular and other blocs have advanced an alternative minority text that would preserve many executive priorities by cutting the original list to about 50 items, creating at least three competing dictámenes on the plenary agenda.
- The immediate outcome will shape urgent government action on security and El Niño relief while setting a precedent for how the new bicameral Congress divides lawmaking authority and resolves inter‑chamber trust disputes.
