Peruvian President Keiko Fujimori announced the upcoming approval of a mechanism called 'Services for Taxes' to accelerate the execution of projects related to El Niño preparation. ^[1] The Peruvian government published an emergency decree to implement extraordinary measures for executing tax-for-services interventions in response to the El Niño phenomenon. ^[2] Keiko Fujimori announced that the executive branch is working on supplementary credits to inject more budget at the national level to address remaining challenges. ^[3] Keiko Fujimori reported that the Housing sector has identified 252 stalled water projects nationwide, of which 11 have been unblocked during the first weeks of her administration. ^[4] Keiko Fujimori stated that the 'Services for Taxes' mechanism will allow the government to work much faster with the private sector through a new call for participation. ^[5] The decree mandates that special committees be formed within one business day of knowing the list of interventions, with public entity heads authorizing direct contracts within four business days. ^[6] The emergency decree specifically aims to reduce administrative timelines and provide additional tools for Servicios por Impuestos (SxI) under the Obras por Impuestos (OxI) mechanism. ^[7] Under the new decree, competent sectors must prepare lists of interventions via ministerial resolutions, and the selection of private companies and supervising entities will occur through direct contracting. ^[8]
