Most legislative committees ended up in ADN's hands.

The National Assembly elected authorities for eleven of the fifteen permanent commissions, with a clear dominance of Acción Democrática Nacional (ADN), the ruling movement led by President Daniel Noboa. Of those eleven, seven are directly chaired by ADN legislators and four with support from independent allies. With 78 votes, the Plenary approved the formation of the commissions last Friday, May 16. Assemblyman Ferdinan Álvarez, now deputy coordinator of ADN, proposed the motion that was supported by legislators from Pachakutik (PK) and independent benches, consolidating a functional majority for the Executive.

The Oversight and Political Control commission will be led by Ferdinan Álvarez, with Nathaly Morillo as vice president. In Economic Regime, Nathaly Farinango and Adrián Castro lead efforts to organize the State's finances. These appointments reinforce Noboa's commitment to a technical and responsible management.

In the area of Economic Development, Valentina Centeno assumed the presidency, accompanied by Diego Franco. The female presence was also strengthened with Camila León Cueva in Biodiversity and Lucía Jaramillo in International Relations. These figures represent a new political generation, focused on results and distanced from the Correa era.

Despite having 67 seats, the Revolución Ciudadana (RC) was relegated to commissions without political weight, such as Childhood or Constitutional Guarantees. This distribution is reminiscent of 2013, when Correa's movement grouped its critics into "refrigerator" commissions. Today, Correa's movement experiences its own institutional isolation.

Assembly President Niels Olsen announced that this Monday, the formation of a special commission to analyze the constitutional reform on party financing will be addressed. This process reaffirms the ruling party's commitment to a modern and transparent democracy.

The alliances of ADN with certain sectors of PK and independent legislators allowed the Government to push its legislative agenda. Although four commissions remain to be defined, the balance has already tipped in favor of Noboa, who strengthens his leadership inside and outside the Legislature.

With eleven commissions under its control and a consolidated majority, Daniel Noboa's Government advances firmly in the National Assembly. Meanwhile, the opposition is relegated, ADN demonstrates the ability to dialogue and build governance for the benefit of the country.
