NATIONAL TRANSPARENCY
PLATFORM
APRIL 22TH, 2015
PRESENTATION
Considering the perspective that people only use their right of freedom of information if
they have at their disposal the means to exercise it, all institutions of information in
Mexico (federal and local) were concerned that the population had the opportunity to
request information not only in writing or in person, but through electronic means and,
in some cases, by telephone and smart phones.
The objective of INFOMEX system was to provide electronic
means for requesting information, from the moment the
user submits his request until there is a response from the
corresponding government institutions.
Now, this system evolves in to a new version (INFOMEX 3.0) that allows all people to find
public information of their interest, no matter if they expressly request it or if they find it
posted on this site that will also include transparency obligations of all public institutions
of Mexico. Additionally, users will be able to locate responses from requests of other
users.
