Interim President Juan Guaidó asked Congressman Elías Matta, the President of the Permanent Energy and Petroleum Committee of the National Assembly, "to submit to the authorizing control of his Committee, the appointment of the ad-hoc Administrative Board of Petróleos de Venezuela, SA (PDVSA), which will have the corresponding attributions to the shareholder assembly and to the PDVSA board of directors, in order to carry out all the necessary actions to appoint the board of directors of PDV Holding, Inc."
Guaido asked that, once the appointments were authorized, the matter be remitted to the plenary of the National Assembly for the pertinent legal purposes.
