Extremadura transparency complaints rise 56 percent

Transparency complaints in Extremadura have increased by 55.7 percent, reaching 204 cases between January and July 2026 compared to 131 during the same period in 2025. According to statistics from the Council for Transparency and Good Governance, the region leads in absolute figures among the seven territories under its control.

Administrative silence is identified as the primary obstacle to information access. Data from the Transparency and Service Quality Service of the Junta reveals that 65.4 percent of complaints were triggered because applicants did not receive a response within the required timeframe. Common issues include inquiries regarding the sale of public lands, municipal job vacancies, and award criteria.
