Venezuela approves a 30-day extension of the monitoring commission for the Amnesty Law
The Venezuelan National Assembly approved a 30-day extension for the amnesty commission, which has a backlog of 11,400 pending applications
Last week, the Venezuelan National Assembly approved a 30-day extension for the commission overseeing the Amnesty Law.
The process has a backlog of 11,400 applications and has granted more than 8,000 full releases, while questions persist about its scope and transparency.
The president of the Venezuelan National Assembly, Jorge Rodríguez, approved the extension so that the commission “can continue functioning with the full exercise of the duties and rights established in the Constitution and the Rules of Procedure, so that it can continue deepening the process of democratic coexistence that we have already begun.”
Rodríguez emphasized that the Amnesty Law “was created precisely to seek reconciliation, to correct any errors that may have been committed by either side,” not to incite confrontation.
Referring to the one-month extension, he indicated that Article 15 of the legislation details that “the special commission must develop and implement mechanisms for the fulfillment of the amnesty, without establishing a specific timeframe for its work.”
