They also discussed guidance on officials’ conduct during plenary sessions, with emphasis on respect, responsibility and integrity in parliamentary deliberation. The committee is responsible for encouraging and monitoring compliance with Congress’s ethics and conduct codes. Under the legislature’s organic law, the comptroller serves as technical secretary with the right to speak. The release reports the oath and discussion; it does not announce adopted new conduct rules or disciplinary findings. ## Data ### Source publication Publication of the official announcement on 30 October 2026.
