The PSOE denounces that the PP uses its majority to change the bases of execution of the Budgets and thus to give free way that the councilors of the Government can spend at their whim (07/03/2017)

With the entry into force a week ago of the new Municipal Budget thanks to the absolute majority achieved by the PP in the courts, the government team takes a step closer to the inefficiency and opacity of the expenses that occur in the City of Lorca.

From now on, the councilors of the government will be able to spend with less control on the part of the Municipal Intervention of that until a week ago.

The second deputy spokesman of the PSOE in the City of Lorca, Isidro Abellán has denounced that the Popular Party has used the absolute majority that they obtained in the courts to modify the bases of execution of the Municipal Budget and thus, give free way to the councilors of the Government " So they can spend at their whim. "

Specifically, Abellán referred to the change that the PP Government Team has introduced in the base of execution number 44. It is the base referring to "minor contracts", that is to say, works contracts of less than € 50,000 and contracts for supplies and services of less than € 18,000, which ensures "are the majority of those produced in a town hall throughout the year."

While legislation at the national level advances in the sense of increasing transparency and publicity in the field of public procurement, the PP government team in the City of Lorca "does the opposite."

Specifically, the Socialist leader warns that what the PP is doing "is to reduce the guarantees of minor contracts."

Abellán explained that before the PP changed this standard, for expenditure on works from € 5,000 and supplies and services from € 2,500, "you had to ask for 3 budgets or 3 offers."

For contracts lower than the previous amounts, the councilor in question could contract them with the simple visa of the invoice (upon request of the corresponding Withholding Credit).

And if they exceeded € 12,500 in works and € 5,000 in supplies and services, he adds, the previous step was to be approved in addition by the Local Government Board.

However, denounces the Socialist Edil, by 2017, the Popular Party "has eliminated all the requirements of previous control and review."

With this change, carried out with the roller of the absolute majority that the PP got in the courts "it is no longer necessary to ask for 3 budgets or offers when you exceed € 5,000 of spending, nor spend the expense by Government Board when they exceed The € 10,000 and € 12,500. "

In this way, the Popular Party has established that for all expenses less than € 50,000 in construction and € 18,000 in supplies and services "whenever possible consult with at least 3 qualified companies."

Abellán warns that this modification supposes that, within the prescribed normative margins, the "less guarantee option" is used.

"A step back assures - in the efficiency and transparency of the spending of this City".

He denounces that this change produces "a clear" "a decrease in the control of spending by officials, and also gives greater discretion to councilors when it comes to spending, Favoritism and possible irregularities on the part of the government team. "
