Monday, April 20 is when the DNU goes into effect. The message on #147 says to call back on Monday to obtain the mandatory permit number which is good for 24 hrs. Any day you want to be out you need to request a new auth number.The Mayor and the Minister of Health held a news conference at 12 noon today. It was carried by all the local channels.
Larreta cannot enacts DNU, only decrees. DNU is a law that by passes the Congress because of an emergency.
 
How will the permit be extended to expats over 70 who do not possess a DNI as they are currently residing in CABA with a tourist visa?
Simple. The AR legal system is based in living in Argentina as an inhabitant instead of your immigration legal status.
However, Larreta is Macrista and this is why he wants a DNI. You cannot apply.

I just dialed the #147. The recorded message gives the caller 4 options....#1 to obtain the permit if you are 70+, #2 if you are 70+ to request assistance from a volunteer if you don't want to go out to pay bills, grocery shopping, etc. If selecting either option, the recorded message says "enter your DNI number....". Options #3 and 4 are re: flu vaccine locations and other general info. None of the 4 options include the possibility of speaking to a live operator without entering a DNI number.

Did you give your DNI, get through to a live operator and ask about what people over 70 without DNI can/should do?

Only the President can enact a DNU that is a decree with the legal value of a law allowed only in emergencies. Larreta is a simple major. He can enacts decrees.

NO....I will call again tomorrow. The call center may have received calls with that question and have an answer after 24 hrs in operation???
 
Modification of decree affecting 70+ year olds in CABA and those entering the city on any given day.

....According to joint resolution 16 of the Ministry of Health and the Head of Cabinet, published this Monday in the Official Gazette of the City, this notice will last 48 hours (and not 24 as it was originally intended to be)....

....clarifies that it is not a "prohibition" to go out but to look for "alternatives" to prevent the elderly from leaving, in a context in which circulation on the streets is growing. "If they consider that they have to leave, that they give us the opportunity to dialogue, to understand why they have to leave, to try to solve the problem ... And if they consider that what we offer is not valid, it does not solve the problem or they do not like it, then they will have all the freedom to go out and do what they consider. "....

Now a mute point. I suspect it is because the letter of the decree could have been argued successfully as to its constitutional legality.
