Congressman Diego Bazan (Country advances) filed a motion of censure once morest the Minister of Health, Hernan Condorifollowing he attended the last March 16 at the plenary session of the Congress to answer an interpellatory statement for the questions that fall once morest him.
The legislative initiative obtained 33 signatures from congressmen from the groups of Avanza País, Popular Renewal, Popular Action, Together for Peru, Alliance for Progress, We Are Peru, Popular Action, in addition to ungrouped parliamentarians, such as Carlos Anderson, Enrique Wong , Susel Paredes, Flor Pablo and Edward Malaga.
On the other hand, the legislative groups that did not place the signature of any representative were Peru Libre, Fuerza Popular and Peru Democrático.
In the motion of censure they detail that the head of the Ministry of Health lacks suitability to hold the position, since they explain that a few days before his appointment “exercised the profession inappropriately by promoting the sale of Cluster X2 (‘agua arracimada’) attributing medicinal properties to it that have not been verified or certified by any official or academic authority”.
They also report that Condori Machado used his status as a doctor to promote a cervical cancer diagnostic service in 1 minute, despite not having a specialty in gynecology or oncology.
“Hernán Condori Machado has not shown the capacity to hold office either. Thus, from a review of the resume and experience in public health management, it can be seen that the Minister of Health was appointed as Regional Director of Health in Junín on January 2, 2020 and remained in office until January 8 of the same year. On that occasion he was removed from office for lack of suitability to hold office.”, they add in the document.
Among other arguments, they indicate that the appointment of Hernán Condori provoked a unanimous rejection of the country’s medical community, represented by the Medical College of Peru, which held a sit-in once morest him.
Likewise, through his Twitter account, parliamentarian Diego Bazán reported on the presentation of the motion and thanked his colleagues who signed it. “Together we will achieve the censorship of a minister who does not deserve to be in office”, he expressed.
I have virtually presented the motion of censure once morest Mr. Condori so that he no longer holds the position of Minister of Health. I thank my 32 brave congressional colleagues who signed it.
