Ley de austeridad en el INAI: 11 aún se resisten

Once President López Obrador’s term ended, eleven high-ranking INAI officials retained judicial protections, known as amparos, against the Republic Austere Law since 2019. This legal shield allows them to bypass salary caps and maintain superior benefits, including health and separation insurance, resulting in compensation packages that significantly exceed standard public sector limits. This situation persists despite the institution’s efforts to reduce costs and its status as a critical body for public transparency. The continued prevalence of these amparos highlights a structural inconsistency within the agency, where subordinate staff receive higher remuneration than the president while the leadership itself is not protected by such exemptions. This disparity creates a potential vulnerability, as the perceived inequity serves as leverage for political pressure against the nation’s highest transparency authority. The existence of these exceptions undermines the spirit of fiscal responsibility that the Austere Law aimed to enforce across all levels of government. This revelation is crucial for open data because it exposes the opacity of public sector compensation and the influence of legal loopholes on fiscal governance. Understanding the mechanisms that allow certain officials to evade salary restrictions provides insight into the challenges of accountability and budgetary transparency in Mexico. For researchers and citizens, it underscores the necessity of rigorous data scrutiny to identify hidden costs and ensure that public institutions adhere to the principles of equitable resource management and legal compliance.
