Well it looks like they extended the amnesty to tax payers who did not want to relocate to this public housing project.  This was done at the same time they increased the affordable housing cap to $80,000.

Congress has approved giving amnesty to tax debtors and extended to $80 thousand the ceiling for housing loans with preferential interest rates of 4%.  A press release from the Ministry of Economy and Finance of Panama reads:

The National Assembly approved on the third reading, Bill numbers 627 and 628, the first of which grants taxpayers the opportunity to regularize their tax obligations with the National Revenue Authority (ANIP), while the second, amends Article 5 of Law No. 3 of 1985, which establishes a preferential interest rate on certain mortgage loans.

The Deputy Minister of Finance, Dario Espinosa, was present during the approval of this third debate, in which most of the full Legislature ratified the decision of the previous two debates, in relation to implementing both projects.
