Tamaulipas Audits Confirm Clean Accounting While Highlight Funding Gaps
The Sistema de Ahorro para el Retiro de los Trabajadores de la Educación de Tamaulipas (SARTET) passed state and anti‑money‑laundering audits with no observations, its director Mariano Lara Salazar stating the accounting is "pulcra" and fully transparent.
Water service operators in the state face severe cash‑flow problems because collection rates are low, with delinquency estimated at 35‑40 %. Secretary of Hydraulic Resources Raúl Quiroga Álvarez warned that this limits investment in infrastructure and threatens reliable water supply during peak demand.
Public Works Secretary Pedro Cepeda Anaya clarified that the 19 observations issued by the Auditoría Superior de la Federación relate only to missing documents in large‑scale projects worth about 3.5 billion pesos, asserting that there is no monetary damage or diversion of resources.
Activist Luis Miguel Iglesias commissioned an independent technical review of the Plaza Juárez rehabilitation in Reynosa and questioned the reported 25.2 million‑peso cost, calling for a clear accounting of every peso spent.
