Oaxaca, fin a transparencia; propone Jara desaparecer el OGAIPO - El Imparcial de Oaxaca

Oaxaca proposes eliminating its autonomous transparency body and replacing it with a non-autonomous entity under the executive branch. This move aligns local legislation with recent federal constitutional reforms aimed at simplifying access to information and data protection rights, reflecting a broader national shift away from independent oversight mechanisms. The governor argues that the former institution operated with excessive secrecy and inefficiency, citing low response rates to information requests. By consolidating authority within the executive, the state aims to create a more streamlined system for accountability, despite concerns about reduced institutional independence and potential conflicts of interest in self-regulation. This development is critical for open data advocates because it threatens the structural safeguards that ensure transparent and impartial data governance. The reduction of autonomy undermines the separation of powers essential for verifying public sector data integrity, potentially compromising the reliability and accessibility of open government data for citizens and researchers.
