Citizens will impose the most absolute transparency in all public contracting and subsidies of Cartagena to eliminate any shadow of corruption, "we will encourage access and competition of companies to public procurement in order to improve the goods and services delivered to the Administration or lending to citizens, we will ensure that elected or appointed officials do not have a presence in the recruitment tables, which will only be composed of independent workers with a technical profile. "

On the other hand, the Liberal spokesman ensures that Citizens "will develop a true Strategic Plan of Subsidies that prioritizes the objectives of social character and generators of employment.

We will do it in collaboration with social agents, neighborhood groups and civil society entities and we will publish it on the City Council website ".

In addition, after the "painful example" demonstrated by PP, PSOE and MC in the use of allocations to municipal groups for operating expenses, Citizens has decided to eliminate this item that during this term has been 260,000 euros, ie 65,000 euros annual, that the liberal party wants to allocate to neighborhoods and councils with worse socio-economic indicators.

Control of subsidies

"We will investigate, depoliticize and streamline all subsidy programs of the City.

We will review all current grant programs by simplifying their procedure, providing transparency to their processing, establishing objective criteria for the valuation of applications and reducing the influence of political positions in technical assessment committees, "announced the spokesman for Citizens in Cartagena , Manuel Padín, who maintains that it is essential, "to verify the correct application of the subsidies, verifying that they are used for what is granted and, otherwise, request their reinstatement".

The Liberal Party will create a Register of Contracts and Subsidies granted and received that can be consulted by citizens.

The registration will be easy and free access, available to neighbors, "we will also publish all agreements of the City with companies, we will make public all meetings that we maintain as members of government, and we will improve the profile of the Contracting Party of the municipal website to include in detail, for example, the reasons why a work in a deputation or neighborhood has been blocked or paralyzed, due to a judicial claim, an accounting error or any other reason and the estimated time for its reactivation.

Citizens believe that these measures, together with the Municipal Office of Protection of the Complainant of Corruption or Irregularities and the regulatory code to prevent plugging or finger-pointing in any position of top management of the City Council (which will emanate from the corresponding contest of merits), "It is the most powerful municipal plan made to date so that the City Council can recover the respect of the citizens of Cartagena", concludes Manuel Padín.
