In addition, in its report, the Municipal Auditor reminds the thirteen councilors of the Popular Party in Lorca that they could be facing a "very serious" violation of the Law of Transparency and Good Government, Law 19/2013, which could lead to the removal of the post They hold and their disqualification from holding public office for a period of between five and ten years.
The second deputy spokesman of the PSOE in the City of Lorca, Isidro Abellán has denounced the political incompetence of the new Mayor of the PP and its councilors, who is taking this City to the "economic drift," as reflected by the new Extrajudicial Recognition Of Credit that will take to full next Monday.
This is the second extrajudicial recognition of credit that the Popular Party has taken full so far this year to be able to face a new batch of bills, for the amount of 172,878.42 €, which PP councilors have spent "for their Account, out of budget ".
Amount that adds to the 423,178.99 € that, similarly, the PP already had to approve last February.
That is, only last year, the 13 councilors of the PP spent "out of budget" more than half a million euros (596,057.11 €), or what is the same, almost 100 million of the old pesetas.
According to Abellán, this new extrajudicial credit recognition has the "worrying warning" of municipal intervention services.
In a report, the controller of the City of Lorca warns the new Mayor and his councilors that "are breaking the legal procedure, which is a violation of the legal system."
So much so, he adds, that the intervener expressly expresses his "disagreement with the procedures followed" by the councilors of the PP, and warns them "to refrain in the future from carrying out irregular spending actions like this."
In his report, the intervener reminds Council members of the PP, and for the second time this year, that they could face a "very serious violation" of the Law on Transparency and Good Governance, Law 19/2013, which could lead them to "Removal from office and their disqualification from public office for a period of between five and ten years."
Abellán said that this situation of "economic drift" is the result of the thirteen councilors of the PP that govern this City Council are exceeding in terms of spending that this City Council presupposes, and therefore, it supports.
The Socialist mayor denounced that these councilors of the PP, with his Mayor at the head, "spend above their possibilities," and the "sad of everything" is that "they spend a lot without it being reflected in the streets of Lorca."
Abellán denounces that, to these 13 councilors, "it is evident that they find it very easy to spend and shoot with King's gunpowder", since "with the absolute majority they have and that they obtained in the courts they allow themselves to spend more than allowed and do Then what they have to do to approve their waste. "
Several councilors are fused in five months the budget of a whole year for their councils
Abellán has denounced the "delicate" economic situation of the City of Lorca says, "not as good as presumed the Popular Party."
One of the keys, says Isidro Abellán, is that the City of Lorca, so far this year, is facing a new budget modification, number 5 of this year 2017.
According to Abellán, this new budget modification is due to the need to economically recoup some councils, such as Culture, that "so far this year, only five months, have already fused their budget for the whole year."
One more proof that, together with the extrajudicial credit recognition, confirms that the PP continues to spend beyond its means, regardless of the consequences and without thinking that it is public money.
Abellán assures that "it is not normal" that in this second extrajudicial credit recognition are battling lots of "past" bills that in many cases "do not respond to extraordinary or unforeseen expenses for this exercise" which, he says, would be expected For a second recognition.
Among the bills that now appear suspiciously are, for example, an expenditure made during the Museum Night of 2016, or for the placement of the summer cinema screens, also last year .
Abellán is reluctant to believe that these bills appear now because at the time they were not presented "within term" by the companies.
In this regard, it has been convinced that it can be invoices that have either incurred expenses without budgetary provision or that the expenses incurred are not in accordance with legal procedures.
