Overview

  • Decree 585 was published in the Boletín Oficial on August 18, formally enacting a broad reorganization of the Ministry of Economy.
  • The decree dissolves or absorbs agencies such as INAFCI and INASE, transferring their responsibilities to the Secretaría de Agricultura and incorporating INV and the Dirección Nacional de Semillas as first-level units.
  • The Instituto Nacional de la Propiedad Industrial is recast as a desconcentrado body under the Secretaría de Industria y Comercio, and Casa de Moneda is designated an Empresa y Ente del Sector Público Nacional.
  • Transport oversight bodies are rebranded, with the CNRT renamed Agencia de Control de Concesiones y Servicios Públicos de Transporte and the Junta de Seguridad en el Transporte becoming the Agencia de Investigación de Accidentes e Incidentes de Aviación.
  • The decree pauses action on the Dirección Nacional de Vialidad and INTI where judicial injunctions apply, even as unions, legislators and judges prepare fresh legal challenges and the Senate is set to review the previously rejected delegated decrees.
