Morena to present anti-corruption proposals aimed at closing legal gaps

Morena lawmaker Alfonso Ramírez Cuéllar is due to present anti-corruption proposals to Senate president Higinio Martínez on Monday in Mexico City.

The package is intended to combat corruption and impunity.

Senators from several parties and representatives of specialist institutions are expected to attend.

In September, President Claudia Sheinbaum said her government was preparing reforms to strengthen anti-corruption efforts.

One measure she mentioned would shorten the time limit for sanctioning suspected corrupt officials.

Anti-Corruption Secretary Raquel Buenrostro Sánchez said legal gaps leave some government areas without budget oversight.

The proposals seek to give every government agency authority to oversee corruption matters.
