The Institute of Access to Public Information of Guanajuato confirms that it will continue to operate normally, despite the Chamber of Deputies’ approval of a constitutional reform aimed at abolishing the National Institute for Transparency, Access to Information and Personal Data Protection (INAI). This approval represents only an initial legislative step and does not entail immediate dissolution; therefore, the state institute retains its full capacity to serve citizens and safeguard transparency rights, while monitoring broader national developments. This situation underscores the critical role of autonomous bodies in promoting government openness and protecting data rights. By maintaining regular operations and engaging in dialogue with local authorities, the institute seeks to align state legislation with any future federal adjustments. This continuity ensures that citizens can continue to access public information and exercise their rights without interruption during the uncertain transition period. The article is relevant to open data because it highlights the fragility of institutional frameworks that guarantee data transparency. It demonstrates how local entities remain essential for upholding open government standards and public trust, even when national structures are under threat. The institute’s continued leadership in transparency rankings shows that local commitment to transparency persists independently of federal political shifts, preserving essential mechanisms for public accountability.
