Overview

  • The Federal Court of Dolores directed the Ministry of Economy and the Access to Public Information Agency to provide the complete administrative record for DNU 179/2025 within five business days.
  • Plaintiffs Francisco Verbic (for CAIP/ACIJ) and CELS won an amparo after alleging the ministry violated the access-to-information law.
  • The ruling found the ministry tried to evade disclosure by rerouting the request from Law 27.275 into a more restrictive administrative procedure.
  • The court emphasized that the DNU does not state the reasons or conditions of the $20 billion IMF credit and ordered delivery of all annexes, embedded files, and related actions.
  • Reporting notes the judges also imposed attorneys’ fees on the Executive and that critics argue the DNU route may conflict with Law 27.612 requiring congressional authorization for public financing.
