It demands to know all the details of this action and its cost to the public coffers |
After having access (not copy) to the invoice of 4,500 euros for trips of members of the local government team of the PP, Councilor of United Left-Greens Gloria Martín, has reported that the City paid travel, transfers and accommodations in Brussels for Value of 3,701 euros to two businessmen linked to the companies 'Patrimonio Inteligente' and 'Expomed', together with the then Councilor for Culture, Sandra Martínez and an eventual worker attached to the Mayor's Office.
The Mayor of Lorca at that time, Francisco Jódar, also would have attended the appointment, however, however, his expenses are not listed on said invoice.
The first of these companies, which frequently participates in hiring processes of the City Council, presumes on its website to be the "organizer" of the exhibition on the reconstruction of Lorca that took place at the European Parliament ("has been our First international exhibition, "they say).
In that sense, the mayor of IU-Greens has wondered that, if it was a "private initiative", why the travel and accommodation of these gentlemen were paid by the municipal coffers.
Martín has demanded to know if these entrepreneurs also received public money for the development of this initiative.
"If it was a public-private partnership, where is the contract? Was it carried out in a regulatory manner according to the precepts set by law? Because the transparency portal of the City Council does not contain anything," said Martin.
The mayor of IU-Verdes also wondered why the payment of a bill "clearly irregular" was made by mandate of the Local Government Board and not through an extrajudicial recognition of credits that must pass through plenary.
In this regard, he recalled that the services provided to the City by the travel agency occurred in March and May 2015, while the invoice is dated June 23, 2016. According to Article 11 of Royal Decree 1619/2012, November 30, which approves the Regulation regulating billing obligations, "invoices or substitute documents must be issued at the time of the operation or, in any case, before the 16th of the following month To the period of settlement of the tax in the course of which the transactions were carried out ".
On the other hand, "recapitulative" invoices (those involving transactions carried out on different dates for the same recipient) are legal only "provided they have been made within the same natural month."
And this includes services rendered with almost two months of difference.
"What the PP local government team has done is illegal, so we will do our best to get to the bottom of the issue and demand the relevant responsibilities," Martín said.
