National Transparency Council Approves Rules to Standardize Public Data

Overview

• The Consejo del Sistema Nacional de Acceso a la Información Pública approved the Reglas de Operación y Funcionamiento on Saturday, August 29, 2026, giving the national body formal operating rules to coordinate transparency work.
• The council also approved an agreement that lets Subsistemas de Transparencia at the state level issue lineamientos to homologate and standardize how local authorities publish legally required information.
• The session was led by Raquel Buenrostro Sánchez and included representatives from 31 federal entities and national bodies such as the Agencia de Transformación Digital y Telecomunicaciones and the Archivo General de la Nación.
• Council leadership renewed its invitation for authorities to publish timely procurement data and other proactive information each month under the existing decree to make spending easier to track.
• Next steps depend on the Subsistemas issuing the harmonizing guidelines and completion of the Política Nacional de Transparencia y Acceso a la Información, actions that will shape whether data becomes clearer, comparable, and more usable for public oversight.
