▪ Preface
The constitutional system of the Republic of China (Taiwan) is a five-power system. The Control Yuan (CY), as the nation’s highest supervisory power, maintains an independent and impartial position and is meticulous in its approach to bringing overall improvement to government. Since taking office on Aug. 1, 2014, the fifth-term CY members have been actively carrying out their duties of supervising government with a high sense of mission and responsibility, effectively defending the rule of law, protecting human rights, and fighting against corruption.
Thanks to the CY members and staff’s hard work, our performance last year is fruitful. For the whole of 2019, the exercise of the supervisory powers was as follows: 14,425 people’s complaints received; 262 investigations launched; 18 impeachment cases proposed resulting in a total of 28 officials impeached; 116 cases of corrective measures proposed with 359 letters calling for improvement sent; 10,992 cases of property declaration by public servants handled; 154 cases of recusal for conflicts of interest handled; 1,903 accounting reports of political donation handled; 147 reports of financial irregularities, dishonest conduct, inefficiencies and neglect of duties passed on from the National Audit Office (NAO) handled; 22 cases of corrective measures, censure, and impeachment proposed from the NAO cases reported to the CY or by using NAO auditing reports as reference.
The various government ministries and agencies saved the state coffers a total of NT$1.51784 billion (US$50.62 million) — including NT$3.29 million (US$110 thousand) in reduced spending and NT$1.51455 billion (US$50.51 million) in additional government annual income — by following corrective measures and recommendations proposed by the CY. In addition, government policies and laws have been improved with a total of 692 improvements made and 118 laws amended (116) or repealed (2).
The CY always actively participates in international ombudsman activities. In 2019, we had the privilege of hosting the 31st Australasian and Pacific Ombudsman Region (APOR) Conference. More than 160 guests, including over 30 distinguished guests from 12 countries, took part in the 31st APOR Conference. The conference also marked the second time that the CY hosted the APOR Conference since joining the International Ombudsman Institute (IOI) in 1994. It last enjoyed the honor in 2011 when the 26th session was convened. Meanwhile, the CY delegation attended the 24th Ibero-American Federation of Ombudsman (FIO) Annual Conference held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
We also welcomed and received a number of international guests and visitors, such as IOI Secretary General Werner Amon, FIO Secretary General Carmen Comas-Mata Mira, APOR Regional President Peter Boshier, Chief Parliamentary Ombudsman of Sweden Elisabeth Rynning, Commonwealth Ombudsman Michael Manthorpe, Victorian Ombudsman Deborah Glass, Honduras Supreme Court of Auditors President Roy Pineda Castro, and President and CEO of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) Foundation Judith Monroe.
The CY also shoulders the responsibility of protecting human rights. Among the complaints handled by the CY in 2019, 12,750 complaints (87.9%) are related to safeguarding human rights. In response to the public’s expectations and after years-long research and planning, on Jan. 8th, 2020, the “Organic Law of the Control Yuan National Human Rights Commission,” as well as the amendments to “the Organic Law of the Control Yuan” and “the Organic Act of the Control Yuan Committees,” were enacted and promulgated by the Presidential Order. Looking ahead, with the newly established National Human Rights Commission (NHRC), the CY shall continue to actively address human rights concerns and deal decisively with cases of violations and abuses in order to build a more comprehensive human rights protection network.
