Following up on our Client Alert published on July 2, 2025 (available here), today the Decree that amends, adds, and repeals several provisions of the Federal Economic Competition Law and the Federal Law on Parastatal Entities (the “Decree”) was published in the Federal Official Gazette (“DOF”). The Decree will enter into force tomorrow, Thursday, July 17, 2025.
Some key points to take into account are:
1. Until the Plenum of the National Antimonopoly Commission (“CAN”) is appointed, the Federal Economic Competition Commission (“COFECE”) will continue operating.
2. The ongoing proceedings shall continue in accordance with the laws in force at the time of their initiation.
3. As of the entry into force of the Decree, all terms for investigation proceedings conducted by the Investigative Authority of COFECE and the Federal Telecommunications Institute (“FTI”) will be suspended.
No later than July 26, 2025, the Investigative Authorities of COFECE and FTI must publish in the DOF which proceedings will continue suspended until the day after the Plenum of the CNA is appointed.
