Summary of the bill.
The draft bill proposes creating the Sustainable Investment and Citizen Development System (SISDEC) to finance regional investments. SISDEC, named SISTEMA DE INVERSIÓN SOSTENIBLE Y DESARROLLO CIUDADANO in Spanish, would use part of the Panama Canal’s annual contributions to the National Treasury. It would manage those resources through a trust, a project secretariat and a planning department. It also provides for citizen training and a periodic dividend for adults listed on the electoral roll.
