Legal Framework To Implement The New Anti-Corruption Strategy In Mexico

The new "General Law of Administrative Responsibilities", commonly referred to as the "Three out of Three Act" was published on July 18, 2016 repealing the previous "Federal Law of Public Servants Administrative Responsibilities". The "Three out of Three Act" along with the General Law of the National Anti-corruption System and the Law of the Federal Court of Administrative Justice will enter into full force and effect as of July 19th, 2017 when these laws are published by the same Decree ¹. These laws as a whole are perceived as the cornerstone of the national strategy to prevent, fight and eradicate corruption in the country.
