Overview
- Supreme Decree No. 239-2025-EF directs S/48,058,483 from the MEF Contingency Reserve to the Ministerio Público to reinforce operations against delinquency and organized crime.
- The allocation covers prosecutors’ travel, field diligences, participation in hearings, connectivity, and technical services at the Institute of Legal Medicine and Forensic Sciences.
- A separate S/45,621,426 shift to the MEF reserve is a temporary reprogramming of the Ministerio Público’s existing budget to sustain projects including the Electronic Case File, a national human genetic profiles center, and DNA labs in Lima, Arequipa, and Lambayeque.
- The measure relies on Article 17 and the Twenty-Third Final Complementary Provision of Budget Law No. 32185, and the reprogrammed tranche does not increase overall public spending.
- Entities must approve detailed distributions within five calendar days and use the funds only for the stated purposes, with MEF minister Denisse Miralles underscoring the government’s priority to combat delinquency.
