Reforms to transparency legislation come into force

The government of Mexico City has enacted reforms to transparency legislation, leading to the dissolution of the Institute of Transparency, Access to Public Information, and Protection of Personal Data of Mexico City (Info CDMX). This institution will be replaced by a new decentralized body under the Office of the Chief Auditor. The decree outlines that Info CDMX must transfer all its movable assets, material resources, records, technological platforms, electronic systems, databases, documentary collections, archival materials, and other information under its custody to the new body within 180 working days after its creation. Additionally, the financial and budgetary resources of Info CDMX will be transferred to the new body through mechanisms determined by the Ministry of Administration and Finance within the same timeframe. The Official Gazette published these decrees on July 13, which include the Law on the Protection of Personal Data Held by Obligated Entities and the Law on Transparency for Access and Dissemination of Information, effective today with some exceptions.

66% of police fired, for administrative faults

According to data obtained through transparency requests, a total of 826 officers have been dismissed during this period, with 549 of them being terminated for various administrative or disciplinary violations. Of these, 218 were removed for unexcused absences, 34 for failing evaluations at the Trust Control Center, and 25 for gender-based violence-related conduct. Analyst Juan Pablo Aguirre noted that while these figures represent progress in improving the police force, more work remains to build public trust and establish the police as effective public servants.
