参议院蓝丝带委员会主席潘菲洛·“平”·拉克松参议员在圣诞节当天确认，承包商Curlee Discaya以及前DPWH工程师Henry Alcantara、Brice Hernandez和Jaypee Mendoza——因洪水控制调查中的藐视罪被拘留——其休假请求被拒，将在节日期间继续留在参议院拘留。
拉克松参议员更新了此前的声明，表示四人将在圣诞节期间留在参议院拘留所，目前蓝丝带委员会正在调查他们在公共基础设施项目（包括防洪项目）涉嫌违规行为中的角色。
这一决定最初由身为临时议长拉克松因安全考虑提出，当时预计将发出逮捕令，此举虽给他们的家人带来挑战，但显示了参议院彻查资金管理问题的决心。
“他们将在节日期间继续处于参议院拘留之下，”拉克松表示。如先前所述，他们可在参议院内参加弥撒并在场内接待家人探访，但不得离开。
