Asegura Sheinbaum liquidación para trabajadores del INAI; otros serán recontratados | Periódico Zócalo | Noticias de Saltillo, Torreón, Piedras Negras, Monclova, Acuña
The INAI is being abolished, with its functions transferred to a new Anti-Corruption Secretariat. This structural change raises significant concerns about the future of the right to access public information and institutional independence in Mexico. The government plans to drastically cut the organization’s budget, leading to staff layoffs or transfers. While authorities claim compliance with legal frameworks, the abrupt dissolution undermines established transparency mechanisms and creates uncertainty for civil servants. This development is critical for open data advocacy, as it centralizes access to public information within the political executive branch. Replacing an autonomous body with a government secretariat threatens the neutrality and reliability of data release, potentially eroding the foundational principles of transparency and accountability.
