    Ecuador: Earthquake Situation Report No. 14 (as of 27 June 2016) This report is produced by OCHA in collaboration with humanitarian partners and with inputs from official institutions. It covers the period from [From 14 to 27 June at 14:00]. The next report will be published on 27 July 2016. Highlights • The Presidential Decree number 1001 of 16 June extends the State of Exception for 30 more days, until 16 July in the provinces of Esmeraldas, Manabí, Santa Elena, Santo Domingo de los Tsáchilas, Los Ríos and Guayas. • The deadline to be registered in the Sole Registry of Affected Persons (RUD) is the 30 June. Only if registered in these system people can be considered for the State's assistance programs (Ministry of Economic and Social Inclusion-MIES, 2016). • However, humanitarian sectors recommend an extension of the registry deadline so that all affected persons can be considered for State programs, especially in rural areas. • The State plans to make Canton Muisne, Esmeralda province, an environmentally protected area. There is an ordinance that no new houses may be built in Muisne and only houses that can be safely repaired may remain in the area. • The beginning of classes for children in the affected areas is 4 July. However, the education sector is concerned about the readiness of schools to receive students on that date. Overview The renewal of the State of Exception decree is valid up to 16 July which implies that: 1) public institutions and armed forces must intervene in the emergency; and 2) the right of the inviolability of home is suspended1.
