The Office of the Vice President (OVP) is asking to bring some of its own amenities to the holding area assigned to the defense for the Senate impeachment trial of Vice President Sara Duterte. Senate Secretary Renato Bantug says the OVP has inquired about bringing equipment, including a refrigerator and a coffee maker, to the holding area. Bantug also reports that the OVP, through its chief of staff Undersecretary Zuleika Lopez, asked whether it can use its own caterer. The announcements are made in the context of preparations for Duterte’s participation in the trial proceedings, with the defense holding area expected to serve as a space for the vice president to wait between court-related activities. The reports do not specify whether the Senate has approved these requests, only that the OVP has raised the inquiries. The details highlight the logistical arrangements under discussion for the defense side as the trial is ongoing.
