Overview
- Human Capital Ministry officials, through Resolution 23/2026 published Tuesday, created the Integrated Registry of Social Policy Beneficiaries inside the Social Information System under the National Council for the Coordination of Social Policies.
- The registry will merge data from different agencies to identify who receives benefits, cut duplicate enrollments, and improve tracing and evaluation of social programs.
- The Council will run the system using existing budget lines, start migrating and harmonizing databases at once, and process only official-source data under Argentina’s Personal Data Protection Law 25,326.
- The rollout comes days before the government shuts down the Volver al Trabajo program on April 9, affecting about 900,000 people who were told they will receive a final April payment and can apply for training vouchers.
- Officials frame the registry as meeting a 2025 IMF commitment to unify social databases to improve program targeting.
