EPN Government acknowledges failure against corruption Peña Nieto administration recognized what the main “problems” or deficiencies which had “for the detection of the dimensions” of corruption in Mexico, when Morena asked: “what failed to not realize the dimensions that corruption was reaching in this administration?”
The first of these, he indicated the administration of Peña Nieto, was “inefficiency of the mechanisms of detection” of corruption and administrative failures.
“In the area of internal control, the identification of irregularities is problematic, since officers directing that task – the holders of inmates organs of Control and units of responsibilities – sometimes have a high turnover or lack of” sufficient technical capabilities necessary.
In the field of external control, the detection task is difficult since the auditor staff nor has information in real time, with sufficient necessary professionalization for the performance of its functions and there is still lack of clarity about the objectives and reaches the SNF (national system of control) “, said the Government of Peña Nieto.
Another of the problems in the fight against corruption, he added, are “inefficient incentives and culture for the complaint. People do not report acts of corruption, because they consider that the complaint would not make any difference, are afraid of the consequences, or do not know where to report such acts. The lack of complaint generates, in turn, that the authorities have no information to investigate and identify irregularities”.
