Overview
- The Presidencia del Consejo de Ministros formally delivered a 120‑day delegation request signed by President Keiko Fujimori and Premier Luis Galarreta after the Council of Ministers approved it, and the document was lodged with the Cámara de Diputados for urgent processing on Friday.
- The package covers 66 topic areas including plans to declare some criminal groups as 'terrorist', expand geolocation and intelligence powers, change legitimate‑defense rules, and permit temporary Armed Forces support for prison security.
- The government frames the request as needed to speed emergency works for the approaching El Niño and to simplify state processes for faster public works and disaster prevention, with ministers urging quick congressional action.
- Economic and labor items in the draft include removing statutory caps on interest rates, creating non‑remunerative productivity bonuses, measures to formalize MYPEs, and changes to holidays and inspection rules that could affect consumers and workers.
- The request now moves to committee review and a plenary vote in the Chamber of Deputies while legal questions linger separately over Proinversión’s Petro‑Perú reorganization, which the Constitutional Tribunal has reserved for a final ruling and could affect planned international financing.
