Control Yuan Issues Verdict on 「3+11」 監院查3+11案 「有所本但未詳加說明」

The Control Yuan has announced the results of its investigation into the "3+11" quarantine plan for flight crews. 

The "3+11" quarantine policy for flight crews has become a point of contention between Taipei City's mayoral candidates. On Aug. 22, the Control Yuan issued a report on its investigation into the policy. It said although the Central Epidemic Command Center had "some basis" to change the plan from "5+9" to "3+11," it failed to explain it in detail to the public and should review it and make improvements. Many believe the Control Yuan was too easy on the CECC.

Chiang Wan-an, KMT Taipei City Mayoral Candidate: “The Control Yuan is essentially sacrificing its own status and credibility by taking this decision. The entire control system has crumbled. This is a crisis of democracy.”

Kuomintang Taipei City mayoral candidate Chiang Wan-an criticized the Control Yuan's decision as a crisis of democracy. Meanwhile, Democratic Progressive Party candidate Chen Shih-chung attacked Chiang, saying the election has made him insane.

Chen Shih-chung, DPP Taipei City Mayoral Candidate: “I think the election has made him insane. The Control Yuan is one of our country's five branches of government. The essence of what it's saying is correct, that there should be a certain set procedure. However, it thinks it would be better if the procedure can be recorded more clearly and explained more clearly to the public. I think the Ministry of Health and Welfare will do that in the future.”

The government previously decided to seal all information related to COVID-19 vaccine procurement for 30 years. Chiang said he served as the convener of the legislature's vaccine procurement review group. At that time, the DPP used its majority to obstruct the operations of the group and then made sure documents were redacted. Chen responded that it's the convener's dereliction of duty if he feels there were insufficient documents but didn't mention it. He also said Chiang hasn't resigned as a legislator, so he still has access to the documents.

首都選戰持續攻防「3+11」政策，監察院昨（22）日傍晚公布調查報告，指出指揮中心從「5+9」調整為「3+11」決策考量雖有所本，但未對外詳加說明，應檢討改進、但監院這報告被外界認為是輕放。

國民黨台北市長參選人蔣萬安表示：「看到監察院這樣的決定，他等於犧牲掉自己的地位跟公信力，讓整個監察制度崩壞，這是一個民主的危機。」

蔣萬安批評，監察院這樣的決定，是民主危機；綠營參選人陳時中也反擊，蔣萬安大概是選舉選瘋了。

陳時中說：「我想他大概選舉選瘋了，監察院我們國家的五院之一，他是說實質面是對的，應該要有，那有經過一定的一個程序，但是他認為在程序面，若能夠記錄更清楚，能夠跟國人講得更清楚那樣更好，將來我相信衛福部也會這樣子做。」

另外，針對疫苗採購檔案封存30年爭議，蔣萬安表示，正因為自己是疫苗調閱小組的召集人，最清楚調閱的情形，當時執政黨以人數優勢阻擋調閱小組成立，再批文件塗黑遮蔽；陳時中則回應，如果覺得資料提供不夠而當初沒有提出來，是召集人失職，下個會期還在，蔣萬安立委也還沒辭，還可以再調資料。
