| Isabel García: "Nieto has an opportunity to go out and clarify what has happened.
If not, it will be accomplice and responsible for hiding information and gambling with everyone's money "| Practically a year has passed since the current local government increased the municipal debt by more than nine million euros on account, they said, of the need to take action to alleviate the damage caused by DANA. During the last municipal plenary session, our formation asked the details of the concepts in which this money has been used and the response of the head of the Treasury, Esperanza Nieto (PP), was to avoid the question, avoiding recognizing the obvious, and that is that they haven't done anything In this context, the councilor of the municipal group MC Cartagena, Isabel García, has put numbers to the situation.
"Of those nine million the Government 'dumped' to budget in the past year more than seven million to mitigate the effects of DANA.
Well, such a rush to request them and so little to spend them, since at the end of the year they had executed less of seven hundred thousand euros, of which the majority was destined to personnel expenses and a pyrrhic forty thousand euros to new investment.
Therefore, they stopped spending six and a half million ". Information hiding "What was the reason for such a rush? What has happened to bring about the miracle that the expense is no longer necessary?" The mayor wondered.
"In case the numbers do not speak for themselves, there we have the attitude of the Government.
Faced with a direct question they remain silent and hide the reality of the situation.
And the reasons for borrowing the City Council are different.
The usual way of proceeding of the PP to bleed the neighbors and favor themselves and those of always ". "Any well thought out could argue that they had little time and that during this 2020 they would invest that money in the works that were necessary.
Nothing is further from reality.
This week we have known the degree of execution of the budget as of June 30, 2020 and Those six and a half million have only authorized expenses for about fifty thousand euros and investments for the same amount, "the Cartagena councilor announced. An overall execution of 10% "Therefore, a year after requesting money from the banks by DANA they have spent little more than 10% of the money that justified the debt." "They may despise us by avoiding our questions, but it is the neighbors who are deceiving.
Nieto has another opportunity to go out and clarify what has happened with that money, what it will be used for and when.
If not, he will be an accomplice and responsible for hiding information, playing with everyone's money and impoverishing us.
She will know her reasons, "concluded Isabel García.
