Ecuador Assembly Enters New Stage

Montecristi, Ecuador, Dec 12 (Prensa Latina) The Ecuadorian Constituent
Assembly enters a new phase Wednesday with the creation of ten Assembly
tables, now that its internal regulations have been approved, Assembly
Vice President Fernando Cordero highlighted.

He indicated the statutes endorsed Tuesday confirm the entity's full
powers, which, he clarified, will not be used as an open check.

Regarding that, Cordero defended the Assembly's faculty to discuss
governmental laws and reforms, which would enter into force once
approved by the majority of the 130 members.

This Constituent Assembly is not a replica of the previous one in 1998,
and the set of rules is highly democratic, because it includes the
possibility of appealing to the Assembly presidency, and was debated
article by article in six extensive sessions.

The document, whose official version has not been published, does not
limit conduct, expressions, or attitudes, and it is unifying mechanism,
Cordero asserted.
