The Oversight Commission promises real oversight after the opacity inherited from Correa's administration

The Oversight Commission of the National Assembly, led by Ferdinan Álvarez (ADN), began its administration with a firm commitment to justice and genuine political oversight. In his initial statements, the legislator denounced the lack of key documentation that should have been delivered by the previous president, the correísta Pamela Aguirre.

Álvarez explained that less than 60% of the information was transferred, which prevents the continuation of relevant political trials. Among them, he mentions proceedings against the CNE, TCE, the Minister of Defense, and members of the Judiciary Council. The lack of physical and digital records limits the work and demonstrates a lack of transparency in the previous legislature's management.

The president of the Commission assured that investigations initiated by Fernando Villavicencio will be resumed and that no official will be shielded. He stated that oversight will be conducted "without looking at faces," including the current Minister of Defense if the facts warrant it. The objective is to break the cycle of impunity.

Additionally, Álvarez emphasized that his commission aligns with other institutional efforts such as the CAN initiative to unify penalties against organized crime and with the strengthening of the Executive, which includes the return of the presidential spokesperson role under Carolina Jaramillo.

Conclusion: The new Oversight Commission seeks to restore public trust and distance itself from the legislative opacity of the past. With an officialist majority, its promise is clear: there will be no leniency toward corruption, wherever it may come from.
