P.R. Laws tit. 3, § 1917
Due to the nature of the exceptional faculties and powers conferred upon the Authority by this chapter and the pressing public interest of everything related to Puerto Rico’s infrastructure facilities, the Legislature by agreement of the Presidents of each body thereof shall designate a qualified natural or juridical person to inform the Legislative Assembly of the progress and resolution of the problems which this chapter attempts to address through the Authority’s interaction with any benefited entity.
The Authority and each benefited entity shall be obligated to furnish to the Legislative monitor copies of the documents, registers, books or accounts concerning all matters leading to the Authority’s intervention with the benefited entity. They will also allow the Legislative monitor, after due notice from the latter, to inspect the infrastructure facilities of the benefited entity or those under the Authority’s control. Likewise, they will provide copies of the documents, registers, books or accounts he may request free of charge. The provisions of this section shall not be interpreted as a limitation of the broad investigative powers of the Legislature, and the specific functions, responsibilities and duties of the Legislative monitor shall be established by the Legislature.
