However, government departments have reported a lack of records regarding the committee's actions and economic support. While the administration announced that a public server network was deployed to provide emergency support in food, lodging, and legal advice, the Secretariat of Social Welfare and Equality reported that no specific social action program was implemented for the disaster. The department stated that only 4,950 food rations were delivered over a 15-day period. The Attorney General's Office recognized 136 victims who signed 156 reparative agreements with Silza Transport S.A. de C.V. The company responsible for the incident is a subsidiary of Grupo Tomza. Governor Clara Brugada stated that the committee would only be formed once the company fulfilled its reparative agreements.
