The president of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, has decided that research on abuses committed within the Church is carried out through the Ombudsman with the help of a commission created to that effect and formed by experts and other groups.
Sánchez had already advanced that he had an idea about how to face the investigation of those abuses but would not make a decision until he meets one of the victims, the writer Alejandro Palomas, who received last Thursday at the Palace of La Moncloa.
Finally, according to the country and have confirmed EFE Sources of Moncloa, there will be no parliamentary research commission and the work of gathering all the data will be held through the Ombudsman, an institution in front of which Angel Gabilondo is.
But it will be Parliament who should endorse that road promoted by Sánchez, since the Socialist Group of Congress will present a proposal not a proposal in which the Ombudsman is entrusted with the drafting of a report on abuses in the Church.
A task in which the institution will have an independent advisory committee that is intended to be formed by experts, representatives of victims, church and various public administrations.
The objective is to determine responsibilities, repair victims and plan public policies aimed at prevention and attention from these cases, and, for this, the report that is carried out will be sent to the Parliament and the Government.
Sánchez has been defending the need for this investigation regardless of the Decision of the General Prosecutor’s Office of the State to ask the Autonomic Prosecutors to send all complaints and complaints on proceedings and sexual abuse to minors committed by religious.
“The prosecution has done what he has to do,” the president of the Government underlined this week before meeting with Alejandro Palomas, the writer who revealed that he was a victim of sexual abuse by a professor at Salle de Premià de Mar (Barcelona.

Pigeons, after meeting with the president of the government, expressed his satisfaction for Sánchez’s commitment, and on Sunday, after knowing the decision that he will be investigated through the Ombudsman, he has written on social networks that “today is a
great day”.
“The echo of many small voices is, added all, an earthquake,” he added.
Sánchez has finally opted to entrust the task of the Ombudsman instead of supporting a Research Commission in Congress as they defended in a United Initiative, ERC and Eh Bildu that was processed on Tuesday by the table of the Chamber.
The PSOE had already expressed doubts about the effectiveness of that road since they claim that they intend that the investigation does not become a show.
Spokesman and Secretary General of the Episcopal Conference, Luis Argüello, also considered this week that a commission in Congress is not the appropriate scope to investigate cases of pedophilia in the Church because “the political issues and support needs that
The real interest of the victims “.
