The Supreme Court authorized the National Institute for Transparency, Access to Information and Personal Data Protection (INAI) to operate with fewer commissioners, ending the institutional paralysis that had hindered Mexico’s transparency framework for months. This decision restores the autonomous body’s ability to function, ensuring that citizens retain their right to access information and hold the government accountable through essential institutional checks and balances. This development is vital for open data because it guarantees the continuity of the agency responsible for enforcing data access laws. Without a quorum, the INAI could not effectively process requests or oversee the disclosure of public data. Restoring its functionality reactivates the mechanisms that ensure government transparency and protect personal data rights for all Mexican citizens.
