Proposal for Regulations

PROPOSED REGULATIONS UNDER REVIEW IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE PUBLIC POLICY OF THE GOVERNMENT OF PUERTO RICO FOR CITIZEN COMMENTS

Pursuant to the powers and authorities granted by the Puerto Rico Institute of Statistics Act, Act No. 209 of August 28, 2003, as amended, and the Uniform Administrative Procedure Act of the Government of Puerto Rico, Act No. 38 of June 30, 2017, as amended, the Puerto Rico Institute of Statistics proposes to amend the Regulation on Information Requirement Orders of the Puerto Rico Institute of Statistics and the Regulation of the Statistical Coordination Committee.

The Regulation on Information Requirement Orders of the Puerto Rico Institute of Statistics establishes the regulatory framework and procedures for the Institute to request information from public and private entities, ensuring the quality, transparency, and accessibility of Puerto Rico’s statistical data. It also defines the duties of the parties, secure digital delivery methods, due process for objecting to orders, and applicable administrative penalties in cases of noncompliance. You can access the proposed regulation here: Regulation on Information Requirement Orders of the Puerto Rico Institute of Statistics.

The Regulation of the Statistical Coordination Committee (CCE) governs the operation of the CCE, establishing the procedures for the appointment of its members, their technical duties, and the rules for the creation of specialized working groups. It defines the responsibilities of government agency heads to ensure the flow of data and establishes administrative penalties for noncompliance, promoting transparency and quality in Puerto Rico’s statistical system. You can access the proposed regulation here: Regulation of the Statistical Coordination Committee.

Actualización de datos en el Sistema de Compilación y Manejo de Estadísticas de Feminicidios

Actualización de datos en el Sistema de Compilación y Manejo de Estadísticas de Feminicidios

El Instituto de Estadísticas de Puerto Rico actualizó el portal del Sistema de Compilación y Manejo de Estadísticas de Feminicidios. Esta actualización incorpora los datos correspondientes al año 2026 y nuevos indicadores que permiten consultar estadísticas importantes como el total de feminicidios registrados por año y los casos de feminicidio seguidos por el suicidio del agresor. Además, se realizaron cambios en el diseño y la presentación del portal para facilitar la navegación y la comprensión de la información.

Entre los hallazgos se destacan los siguientes:

• En Puerto Rico, durante el período comprendido entre 2021 y agosto de 2026, cerca de la mitad de los homicidios de mujeres registrados fueron identificados como casos relacionados con razones de género. Se registraron 263 homicidios de mujeres, y de estos, 128 casos (48.7 %) fueron clasificados como feminicidios.

• De los 128 feminicidios registrados, 119 casos (93.0 %) fueron clasificados como feminicidios íntimos o familiares. La mayoría de estos casos ocurrieron en el contexto de relaciones cercanas entre las víctimas y los agresores.

• De las 128 víctimas de feminicidios, 46 (36%) fueron en incidentes de feminicidios seguido de el suicidio del agresor.

Como parte de esta actualización, el Instituto de Estadísticas incorporó una nueva infografía al dashboard de feminicidios con información correspondiente al período 2021–2025.

Esta presenta información adicional sobre el contexto de los feminicidios ocurridos durante el período de 2021–2025, incluyendo el perfil de las víctimas, el mecanismo de muerte, entre otras variables. También incluye secciones específicas sobre los feminicidios íntimos y los feminicidios seguidos por el suicidio del agresor, con información que permite examinar con mayor detalle las características de estos eventos. Estos datos permiten observar la importancia de analizar la violencia de género dentro de las relaciones de pareja y del entorno familiar.

La información actualizada y los recursos para facilitar la comprensión de las estadísticas de feminicidios están disponibles en el Sistema de Compilación y Manejo de Estadísticas de Feminicidios del Instituto de Estadísticas de Puerto Rico.

The Puerto Rico Institute of Statistics and the Fire Bureau have coordinated strategies to improve the Bureau's statistical reporting.

Dr. Orville M. Disdier Flores, Executive Director of the Institute, and Commissioner Josué Piñeiro Torres of the Fire Bureau led a meeting that resulted in a work plan to improve the processes for collecting, analyzing, and producing the statistics and reports generated by the Bureau.

Producing more comprehensive, reliable, and easily accessible statistics will promote better decision-making and service optimization.
