The National Copyright Institute (Instituto Nacional de Derechos de Autor—INDA) is responsible for the administrative enforcement of the copyright law. The institute is permitted to conduct investigations, request appropriate inspections, perpetuate temporary termination of copyright violations and impose penalties. In 2003 an Intellectual Property Rights enforcement unit was created that combines federal prosecutors and police forces. In January 2009 the government created a special intellectual-property tribunal that forms part of the Federal Courts for Tax and Administrative Issues (Sala Regional en Materia de Propiedad Intelectual del Tribunal Federal de Justicia Fiscal y Administrativa).
