参议院临时议长潘菲洛·拉克森表示，如果证据指向总统马科斯，他将无法在参议院针对数十亿比索防洪工程丑闻的调查中置身事外。然而，社交媒体上针对总统的未经宣誓指控不具备法律效力。拉克森目前正在准备一份“主席进度报告”，以恢复相关听证会。
在接受dzBB采访时，拉克森表示：“如果证据指向总统，我们对此也无能为力。”他驳斥了前众议员萨尔迪·科在Facebook上声称回扣被直接送往总统官邸的说法。拉克森指出：“萨尔迪·科的说法没有证据价值，因为他并未在宣誓后作证。”他也以同样的标准看待了牵连马科斯但缺乏佐证的前举报人奥利·古特扎。为了打破调查僵局，拉克森正在准备一份“主席进度报告”，其中包含来自八次听证会的调查结果、视觉辅助材料和证据。该报告旨在为司法部和监察专员办公室提供协助，上述部门已非正式地索要了一份副本。他解释称：“提交这份主席进度报告就等同于提出了一份部分报告。”一旦报告提交，听证会将可以恢复，拉克森也希望能再次传唤前众议院议长马丁·罗穆亚尔德斯。
