By Huang Yu-zhe 黃于哲A constitutional crisis between the Judicial Yuan and the Control Yuan has sparked controversy. Intriguingly, Taiwan has two other powers: the Examination Yuan and the Control Yuan. Yet, in practice, most would agree that the Examination Yuan is part of the executive branch, while the Control Yuan is part of the legislative. The Control Act (監察法) stipulates that the Control Yuan shall exercise the powers of impeachment, censure and audit, and propose corrective measures against civil servants. In Taiwan, judges are civil servants regulated by law and, therefore, these measures are applicable.
