By Huang Hsin-po / Staff reporterThe People First Party (PFP) caucus yesterday urged members of the Transitional Justice Commission to resign en masse and threatened to freeze the commission’s budget for next year until the Cabinet-level body is filled with new members. The commission’s main tasks should be to restore historical truth and clear the names of wrongly convicted people, PFP caucus whip Lee Hung-chun (李鴻鈞) said. Lee said that the commission members should have held a meeting to discuss Chiang’s achievements and mistakes, and released their conclusions for public review. Transitional justice touches on many issues, including history, laws, politics and cultural values, PFP Legislator Chen Yi-chieh (陳怡潔) said. “We should not ruin the hospital in pursuit of transitional justice,” he said.
