About Enrique Suñer Ordóñez
- Enrique Suñer Ordóñez (1878 - 1941) was a Spanish professor of pediatric medicine at the University of Madrid and administrator in the Franco government. He was vice president of the Education and culture committee of Franco's first government.
- He was subsequently appointed president of the Comisión Liquidadora de Responsabilidades Políticas where he oversaw an anti-intellectual purging of schoolteachers and denouncing of leading intellectuals such as Ramón Menéndez Pidal, María Goyri, and many others.
- The enormous backlog of cases he sent to the Commission led to dysfunction, and his eventual replacement in 1940 by Wenceslao Gonzalez Oliveros.
