Panel questions oversight and use of pension trust created under debt plan

Committee members asked for clarity about a trust referenced during testimony that was established under the debt‑adjustment framework to support pension payments. Arnaldo Ortiz described the vehicle as a trustee‑administered fund created by the plan of adjustment and reported that, "al último trimestre de junio del 2026, tiene un balance de 400005000." Representative Lourdes Ramos said she would insist on transparency and records, and asked the Junta to provide details on investment gains, deposit banks and governance.

Members raised that because the funds originated as government employer contributions they should be subject to accountability measures and not be treated as an invitation‑only private meeting. The committee asked the Junta to supply membership and governance documents of the trust and to explain whether portions of the fund could be considered for targeted uses without breaching legal safeguards.
