Deputies analyze opening files for candidates for INE advisors

The Transparency Committee will evaluate opening files for 369 candidates for INE advisors.

The Chamber of Deputies reviews the reservation of information imposed on the selection process of INE counselors. Initially, it was determined to keep the files of 369 applicants under protection for five years.

Proposal of the Transparency Committee

The Transparency Committee of the Chamber of Deputies called an extraordinary meeting to reconsider that decision. The proposal is to open public versions of the documents, protecting only the personal data of the participants.

It is also proposed to create a microsite that concentrates information about the process, including evaluations and part of the files. This would allow greater access to public information.

Why is it being reviewed now?

The review occurs following requests for access to information. Legislative authorities consider that most of the documents can be made transparent. Initially, exams and evaluations were reserved based on criteria from the defunct INAI.

Balance between transparency and privacy

The Committee seeks to determine if it is viable to open the selection process for INE advisors. An attempt is made to balance the right to public information with the protection of applicants’ personal data.

The final decision could set a precedent on how to handle sensitive information in electoral authority designation processes.

Seizure of 48 thousand cans of illegal beer in Tabasco

Seizure of 48 thousand cans of beer without documentation on the Raudales-Malpaso highway.

Federal and state security elements seized a tractor-trailer with approximately 48 thousand cans of beer of dubious origin in Tabasco. The driver was placed at the disposal of the authorities.

The operation occurred on the Raudales-Malpaso highway, in the municipality of Huimanguillo. The security forces acted following an anonymous complaint, which allowed strategic investigation work to begin.

At the scene they stopped an International tractor-trailer coupled to a dry box. During the inspection, they located two thousand plates of beer of various brands.

Due to the fact that the driver did not present the required documentation to prove the legal possession and transportation of the product, he was detained.

The detainee, the unit and the shipment were at the disposal of the Public Ministry of the Federation. An investigation folder will be opened to determine responsibilities.

The Attorney General’s Office highlighted the importance of the exchange of operational intelligence to prevent the circulation of illegal merchandise on the country’s roads.
