The Presidential Office says it has disbanded an ad-hoc committee tasked with
promoting transitional justice for Indigenous peoples.

Office spokeswoman Karen Guo says the responsibilities of the Indigenous
Historical Justice and Transitional Justice Committee have now been
reassigned to the Cabinet.

Guo says the committee last met in May and completed its tasks after more
than seven years of operations.

The spokeswoman also says President Lai Ching-te has instructed the Cabinet
to continue ongoing work to revive Indigenous languages, promote greater
autonomy, and enhance the protection of Indigenous rights.

The committee was established at the end of 2016.

It was tasked with assisting in the government's efforts to promote the work
of transitional justice for Indigenous peoples.

This included designating Indigenous languages as national languages and
improving the access of Indigenous peoples to the health system.
