Not that Hugo doesn't love the credit for everything that benefits anyone, but it seems from his past approach he usually gets things all done and then comes in after to claim all the credit. I can't recall an instance where he actually broke the news himself on any projects or benefits.

IMO seems more likely that Sanz will get everything out, the permit will issue, the miners will start working, and then Hugo will come in an discuss how he has fixed everything during an incredibly long and tedious Alo circus.
