INM tendrá que detallar gasto en estaciones migratorias
The National Institute for Transparency has ruled that the National Migration Institute must provide detailed financial data regarding its operations. This decision mandates the disclosure of specific expenditure details from 2018 to the present, ensuring citizens can access granular information on maintenance and operational costs rather than receiving generic budget summaries. The ruling highlights that previous responses claiming insufficient data were inadequate. Authorities found evidence that the agency already possessed the required disaggregated information and had shared similar data in past requests. Consequently, the institution failed to conduct a proper search, violating transparency obligations by withholding information it clearly holds. This case underscores the critical link between open data and public accountability, particularly for sensitive humanitarian topics. Ensuring financial transparency allows society to monitor public resource usage effectively. By enforcing the release of detailed spending records, the decision strengthens democratic oversight and trust in institutions managing vulnerable populations.
