A member of the Executive Committee of the Socialist Party of Lorca and responsible for issues related to Earthquakes, Antonio Navarro, said that "from the Socialist Party we are determined not to let us take the hair and we will be permanently denouncing the opacity gap, obscurantism, inaction and incompetence of those who have to do with the management of the Earthquake. "
Navarro continued by stating that "we understand everything about the Earthquakes, is especially sensitive. But it is, if anything, be very clear about the origin and destination of the large amount of money that is coming to Lorca by different concepts. This section, money seems to be the best kept secret in town hall. The little information that we pass, we get after having to repeatedly denounce the obscurantism and opacity of the talking. "
Pérez Navarro emphasized that "after our complaint of days spent in the sense that we are hiding information from the management of the Bureau for Development and the money received by the City from the Insurance Compensation Consortium, only information you have provided the Bureau for Development. By the way, information that is currently waiting to be reviewed. "
"As for the information of the Consortium - has continued Navarro, the data we have are: the City Council has told us repeatedly that the damage caused by the Earthquake in municipal assets is around 40 million euros. On the other hand, we know that the City has received a first tranche of 3,000,000 € on 12.07.11, a second tranche of € 3,975,000 on 08/02/11, and a third batch of 5,500,000 € the 08.11.11. This makes a total of € 12,475,000. With which, if we say that the damage is 40 million and we have evidence that they have received almost 12.5 million, Where are the more than 27.5 million missing? "he asked the Socialist leader.
Antonio Navarro finished stressing that "we're talking about amounts of vertigo. In this kind of thing, we can not admit no answer. We're talking about damage to the heritage of all. We are talking about much money from all Lorca and all we must be clear where that money and what use is being made of it. For this reason, we request written record that we hand over city a full report of the Consortium, which could realize the following: what damage are those seen by our heritage, and what money has come and how much remains to reach the Town Hall, from the Insurance Compensation Consortium?, and a City Council report which clearly specifies the use being made of that money. So far, we have not received an answer. It is clear that the report of the Consortium is held by the City Council. As is also clear that what we want to facilitate. Why? ".
