Sources: 4. Developments: 2. Legislative scrutiny has increased regarding the privatization of state-owned enterprises in Argentina. Initially, Deputy Ana María Ianni raised specific concerns over the failed privatization tender of Intercargo, questioning why no offers were received and demanding explanations for the closure of operational bases in Río Gallegos and Comodoro Rivadavia. Ianni noted that these closures threaten air connectivity in Patagonia and create uncertainty for over 1,500 workers. Following these developments, Deputy Florencia Carignano and other legislators expanded the scope of oversight, denouncing a lack of transparency in the privatization processes promoted by the Javier Milei administration. Legislators have requested that the Bicameral Commission for State Reform summon officials, including the head of the Agency for the Transformation of Public Companies (ATEP), to provide information on several entities. The companies under investigation include Intercargo, Aerolíneas Argentinas, Belgrano Cargas y Logística, SOFSE, Corredores Viales, AySA, Enarsa, and YCRT. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-04: Argentina: Deputy denounces privatization irregularities Argentine Deputy Florencia Carignano has denounced a lack of transparency in the privatization of state companies under the Milei administration, calling for legislative oversight. 4 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/argentina-deputy-denounces-privatization-irregularities ### 2026-08-07: Argentine Deputy Ana María Ianni Demands Answers on Intercargo Privatization and Patagonia Base Closures Deputy Ana María Ianni demands government explanations on the deserted Intercargo tender, Patagonia base closures and equipment removal, citing risks to regional connectivity and 1,500 workers. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/argentine-deputy-ana-mara-ianni-demands-answers-on-intercargo-privatization-and-patagonia-base-closu --- Cite as: Argentine legislative oversight of state company privatizing.
