Socialist Diego Councilman José Mateos, again denounced the lack of transparency of the Planning Department.
He explained that almost two months are not published on the website of the City Council minutes of weekly meetings of the Board of Directors of this organization, created in April this year and has no representation of local groups in the opposition.
According to the mayor of the PSOE, following the amendment of the bylaws of the Planning Department, the responsibility for granting planning permission passed to the Board of Directors, which promptly undertook to publish on the website of the City Council minutes of weekly sessions.
However, for six weeks in Opposition councilors lack any information about it so that "we are unable to exercise control over municipal government action that we have entrusted by the citizens," said Matthew .
For the PP hinders Socialist councilor "deliberately" the audit work of other local groups and is more concerned "to hide the information they are entitled Lorca to solve the problems of citizens."
Mateos said they have to learn "by the back door" of issues that the PP does not want made public.
This complicates the decision-making and democratic control of local administrations, as noted.
Therefore demanded that the government team of Francisco Jódar fulfill its commitment to publish the resolutions of the Board in the report and suggest that the planning permission granted by the City Council.
While Jódar again asked to "reconsider" the elimination of the Planning Department because his disappearance is "a step backwards in civic participation and public transparency.
