The Venezuelan government has sent a delegation headed by President Hugo Chavez's special assistant Johnny Janne Rangel to oversee the distribution of the houses Venezuela donated to victims of the flooding from Tropical Storms Olga and Noel last year. The commission said it was satisfied with the social work being done, and they met with Senator Felix Nova, government officials and community activists to discuss various ideas. Rangel spoke of the possibility of installing a plant to build an additional 3,000 pre-fabricated houses for low-income families.
