INAI acumula 800 recursos sin resolver al no poder sesionar como pleno en un mes

The National Institute for Transparency, Access to Information, and Personal Data Protection (INAI) is facing a critical institutional crisis due to the lack of a quorum in its plenary session. This paralysis prevents the resolution of hundreds of pending review requests, effectively delaying citizens’ rights to access public information and personal data. The situation highlights a significant vulnerability in the oversight mechanism, where procedural failures directly translate into the daily infringement of fundamental democratic rights. Despite this stagnation, the institute remains active in promoting transparency through educational initiatives, such as the Weeks for Transparency in Universities. These events aim to engage students and foster a culture of accountability, emphasizing that democracy relies on open government and the protection of personal data. By bringing these issues to academic spaces, INAI seeks to empower the younger generation to understand and assert their rights, ensuring that the principles of transparency are not lost even when administrative functions are hindered. This narrative is crucial for the open data community because it underscores the fragility of the institutional framework required to guarantee access to public information. Open data initiatives depend on robust, functioning oversight bodies to enforce compliance and protect user rights. The current crisis demonstrates that technical access to data is insufficient if the legal and administrative mechanisms ensuring transparency are compromised, thereby threatening the integrity of the entire open government ecosystem.
