Fuerza Popular, through a statement, reported that they have requested the Plenary Session of Congress to go to an intermediate room because the withdrawal of the 4 UITs from the AFPs must be tied to the reform of the pension system, which has not been discussed in the parliamentary committees.
During the debate in the plenary session—where only the eventual seventh withdrawal of funds from the AFP was scheduled— The Fujimorist congressmen insisted that the modification of the pension scheme must also be approved, but they only referred to four points, despite the fact that the document, as reported by La República, has more than 500 pages and is made up of more aspects.
Thus, the orange bench proposes that the consumption pension be also validated, the minimum pension be improved, only performance commission be charged (in the management of contributions) and the market be opened to more competitors.
For his part, the president of the Economy Commission, Cesar Revillatold La República that for the moment they are “collecting everything from colleagues,” in order to continue with the debate from 3:00 p.m.
According to Congressman Carlos Anderson, the aim is to stop the release of funds from the private system with “the core of the pension reform.”
“It’s an intermediate room, a kind of strange thing. The president (Revilla), because they are Fujimoristas and Fujimoristas who play the game on the wall, says that he proposes the intermediate room and another that has already been accepted. They don’t give us the opportunity to say that it had not been accepted. That’s how it works. I hope that after lunch, when it resumes, we will put things in place,” he told the media.
