At the beginning of the plenary session, the Councilor for Citizens has presented written statements to the Mayor and the Secretary General explaining the reasons that lead him to make this decision.

On February 2, 2017 and reiterated on February 20, 2017, documents and explanations were requested on the purchase of honorary medals from the Municipal Corporation through an interposed company.

"We have verified that this company has as its only client the City of Lorca, was created in February 2011 to carry out all types of services, and among its corporate purpose does not include supplies of materials as a supplier, a practice that has been repeated at least in The years 2015 and 2016, rather is responsible for buying those supplies to suppliers and then invoices the City Council, "explains the Council of Citizens.

This letter asked for an explanation of this situation because it is not understood why it is not bought directly from the supplier, having verified that this company would be applying presumptions of up to 400% of the market value of this material.

All these doubts would have been clarified showing the invoice of the true supplier, accepting even a normal commercial increase, taking into account also that the budgets offered by companies of the sector at the request of this municipal group, would confirm these suspicions.

"The very refusal to provide these documents reinforces our idea of ​​the extra cost applied to corporate medals and we do not understand how the Government Team has not been interested in checking it, and we wonder what interest can be had in paying for these medals much more Of what they are worth? "

In view of the foregoing, "I am obliged, as I stated in my letter of March 2, 2017, to provisionally return the honorary medal and pin received at my inauguration on July 3, 2015, until it is shown that This institutional symbol has not been used for the personal gain of some, and is not stained with corruption, "says Antonio Meca at the time of the return.
