With this change, the National Guard will no longer be part of the Secretariat of Security and Citizen Protection and will move to the Sedena; the budgetary and financial resources that correspond to cover the operating expenses of this security group and the material resources destined for its operation will also be transferred to this last agency.
The reform to articles 13, 16, 21, 32, 55, 73, 76, 78, 82, 89, 123 and 129 of the Political Constitution states that it will be the President of the Republic who appoints the commander of the National Guard, but at the proposal of the head of the Army.
According to the amendments, the Federation will have a National Guard, which will be made up of personnel of military origin and with police training and will depend on the Sedena to execute the National Public Security Strategy.
The discussion of this constitutional reform is expected to end on Wednesday, September 24.
