The plan addresses issues stemming from two former Socialist heavyweights implicated in graft allegations. Sanchez's measures include establishing an independent public integrity agency to oversee corruption efforts and enhancing data analysis through artificial intelligence to detect vulnerabilities in public contracts. Additionally, random wealth checks for top officials will be instituted, alongside mandatory external audits for parties receiving significant public funds. Sanchez remains determined to maintain his government's integrity despite the looming scandal.
