The Congressional Constitution Commission formed a working subgroup that – under the presidency of legislator Alejandro Aguinaga – will review the norms issued during the last five governments, including that of Dina Boluarte.
The subgroup was installed yesterday and, as specified, “will exercise political control over the regulatory acts of the Executive Branch since 2018 that are pending analysis, including legislative decrees, emergency decrees, international treaties and supreme decrees that declare or extend regimes of exception”.
In this line, the study will cover all the provisions given during the governments of Martín Vizcarra, Manuel Merino, Francisco Sagasti, Pedro Castillo and those currently dictated by the management of Dina Boluarte.

“This subcommittee has the high responsibility of analyzing the normative acts of the Executive Branch. Our work will be hard because we must analyze each legislative decree. We must bear in mind that, over the years, the role and functions of Congress have been changing,” said Aguinaga, who will be accompanied on the subcommittee board by Wilson Soto Palacios (Popular Action) as vice president, and José Jerí Oré (We are Peru) as secretary.
Aguinaga stressed that contemporary congresses are no longer limited to exercising a legislative function, but that this is complemented by the functions of representation and constitutional control that allows an effective balance of powers that is essential for democracy.
