• Content of the law / status
• If applicable, all relevant amendments to the law
• Date of last amendments
• Data should be updated at least on quarterly

Comments

Both Legislative Chambers, Diputados (https://www.diputados.gob.mx) and the Senate (https://www.senado.gob.mx) don't have machine readable and bulk data. Nonetheless, outside websites have built APIs and other scrapping-based information flows in order to gather and publish information in sites such as www.curul501.org and apps such as https://itunes.apple.com/mx/app/id625548107?mt=8. Other internal data standards, such as law taxonomy are either not public or don't exist. No license could be found which makes the data not open.

No change from 2013.

Actualización 2015: El estado de los datos no ha cambiado, la información solicitada en los criterios no existe y no hay una licencia clara para el uso de los datos.

Comment to the 2015 update: Legislation data in Mexico do exist, is publicly available, for free, available online, on a timely basis and in digital forms.
