Mexico
Establishes
Code

Sexual
Tourism
with
Minors
Mexico
City
-
The
Mexican
government
on
Tuesday
passed
a
law
that
seeks
to
protect
minors
from
sexual
tourism.
The
new
code
enacts
preventive
and
protective
measures
for
children
and
teenagers
in
tourism
companies,
and
also
and
also
allows
for
the
prosecution
and
punishment
of
travelers
who
commit
this
crime.
The
code
was
signed
by
Margarita
Zavala,
president
of
the
Consulting
Citizens
Council
of
the
National
System
for
Integral
Family
Development,
Tourism
Secretary
Gloria
Guevara,
entrepreneurs
and
civil
society
representatives.
The
legislation
to
avoid
human
trafficking
has
improved
with
a
constitutional
reform
passed
by
the
Congress,
but
it
requires
more
participation
to
fulfill
and
respect
the
law,
Zavala
said.
