The Consistory Lorca, to the inaccuracy and errors in the data provided by the company asks for more rigor, considered irresponsible disseminate data that represent some risk to discredit the good name and good image of a city like Lorca.
The City Council considered unwise for a press that does not offer or dates of the data used and explains the criteria that places each municipality in that position is issued.
Lorca City Council regretted that the PSOE, IU and business assumptions used out of context and data at least to some erroneous statements do not reflect the reality of the municipality.
Therefore, we have put the Consistory contact the company to clarify us the origin of the data to which they refer and have given no convincing explanation.
Therefore, the Consistory Lorca considered "reckless erroneous conclusions based on information disseminated out of context since the risk of discrediting the work of the whole society Lorca in exchange for free advertising is run".
At the same time it is very unserious issue a press release in which not even talking about the dates of the data used, or explain what the course would factor to each municipality in a certain position. "
Because the company has issued information on the risk of poverty (as they themselves indicate not mean they are) has not contacted at any time with the Consistory to meet local data and compare their findings this morning We have contacted the company that has spread to the media this "balance" for us to clarify what data, numbers and statistics have been used to reach these conclusions.
Since the company tell us that used data from the National Statistics Institute (INE), which is a mistake, because in your information using a secure data as the unemployment rate that the INE does not produce locally, as there is known active population of each municipality.
It is recalled that precisely the percentage of unemployment in our city over the total population is above the national and regional averages, with 7.23% from 8.89% and 8,695 respectively, which apparently has not been picked the alleged "study" which remains unknown.
The company says that these conclusions are derived from a kind of database that they make themselves and called BIG DATA.
But keep in mind that the data provided by the INE different studies do not always agree on the time and, therefore, can not be cross each other.
This company aims to be disclosed by this information is curiously marketing consultancy, says in his own note has the function among others work for government agencies to establish policies that can develop based on data like this (data they produce, paradoxically).
Therefore, the City Council is considered that "these findings are to leave, being elegant quarantined.
For now we are waiting for us all to clarify this matter which, for us, we did not block at all.
It is true that Lorca has had it rough because of earthquakes and floods, which have aggravated the effects of the crisis, but then to what some try to paint goes a very long way. "
