Walter Alban on changes to Suneda: “I never expected such a decision from the Minister of Education”

Walter Albanthe former ombudsman, expressed his criticism of what is happening with the change in the composition of the board of directors of Sunedu, and pointed out that the Education Forum had already filed an unconstitutionality suit with the Constitutional Court (CC) against law 31520, called the university counter-reformation.

“This vicious practice of announcing a decision of such complexity and importance, without having a verdict in sight, is unacceptable. We don’t have a text where we could see what they intended to base this measure on,” Alban said in the program. Everything is known RPP.

Alban questioned that, since executive power a man has been placed in Suneda who has questions such as continued ties with the university and that a new board of directors will also be formed with only four of its seven members.

“I am ashamed to see how the Ministry of Education and the Executive Branch call a person who leaves San Martin de Porres. I never expected such a decision from the minister,” he added.

The former Minister of the Interior also acknowledged that for constitutional Court agree with them, but expect magistrates to give clear arguments in favor of their decisions.

“According to the constitutional procedure code, this should be recognized (action of unconstitutionality), because what they discussed is a different matter. 2010, which ordered the Peruvian state to take measures to ensure that supervision is independent, impartial, that there will be no interference from universities. They did not say anything about this. We do not expect them to agree with us, but we want to force them to give them a reason to try to wash up, to say something that can support the absurdity of what they have decided,” he stressed.

Finally, he reiterated his dissatisfaction with what he considers an insult to Suneda because the institution is being harmed.

“This is an unacceptable disgrace. Since there are so many problems in the country and we talk about different things all the time, they take advantage of this situation to do what they want. It seems unworthy to me, and I think it should motivate the way civil society organizes to prevent this arbitrariness from continuing,” he said.

What raises the action about unconstitutionality?

The initiative, which includes the signatures of 9,853 citizens, requires a new hearing in the NK to discuss the connection of the aforementioned law “with guidelines set” by the court itself in 2010 regarding necessary reforms in higher university education in the country.

Lawyer Cesar Azabash pointed out that the organic law constitutional Court “This allows claims to be resubmitted on issues that the court has already resolved” if they contain a different approach or unaccounted for references to other decisions.

In this regard, he pointed out that the members of the TC limited themselves to conducting “a textual comparison between the (university) counter-reform law and the text of the Constitution” and from this they conclude that the Magna Carta does not contradict or prohibit the new adopted law (31520).
