Deben transparentarse resultados de asambleas para diseño de libros: INAI
The article highlights a critical open data victory in which transparency authorities ordered the Mexican Ministry of Education to release educational planning documents. The ministry’s attempt to withhold the information for five years was deemed unjustified, as the deliberative process had long since concluded. Although the ministry cited ongoing legal challenges, the commission determined that the constitutional flaws in the curriculum design had already been established by court ruling. Consequently, the exemption no longer applied, mandating the disclosure of public versions of the materials while preserving only personal privacy. This case is vital for open data, as it reinforces the principle that administrative delays or legal proceedings cannot indefinitely block public access to essential government information. It establishes a clear precedent that transparency obligations persist unless specific, justified privacy concerns exist, ensuring that citizens can scrutinize the development of educational policy.
