The meeting of the Commission of Inquiry is over in a few minutes to start after reaching the commitment not convene again until not available the data requested by the representatives of the Popular Party, CTSSP-We can and Citizens.
In recent years they have been constant complaints and citizen complaints and animal organizations for the operation of the Shelter and Treatment of Domestic Animals (CATAD), without the previous Popular Party government showed the least sensitivity.
For this reason, a proposal from Citizens and CTSSP-Podemos, the municipal plenary July 2015 approved the creation of a commission of inquiry into the management of CATAD.
I had to take more than half a year so that in February 2016 the Commission finally constituted, and soon after, the Municipal Group of Citizens in Cartagena requested through the General Register of the City the necessary basic documentation management of this center to start research: the relationship of the complaints which have been submitted to the City Council on CATAD, logbooks, list of invoices of expenses and income related to animal feed, medical supplies, number of notices in the last four years, and labor and economic situation of staff working in the center.
This documentation essential to start working, due in the next call for the Commission, in May 2016, but instead management researched center filed five pages with numbers typed without any endorsement attesting its origin, not one bill.
For this reason, Citizens reapplied through the Registry required documentation, but this time in a much more detailed manner and including other points as the number of animals cremated and reports produced by the Nature Protection Service (SEPRONA) and the District Agricultural Office (OCA) in its inspections over the past four years.
This information should be delivered to the new meeting of the Committee on Research, held today at the Administration Building San Miguel, but the councilors of the Popular Party, PSOE, CTSSP-Citizens can and have left the meeting empty-handed.
The meeting, which started 25 minutes late, spokesman for Citizens in Cartagena, Manuel Padin, said that in view of that had not submitted the documentation requested from the April "this meeting will last very little, i do not want to waste any more time and i guess nobody at this table either, without the data we have requested can not start work, and i am clear that we are all public employees here and not get paid for meetings that do not serve absolutely Not at all".
According to Manuel Padin, "I understand that all who belong to this Committee, and the head area councilor, Francisco Calderon first, have the same goal: to ensure animal welfare in this municipality and oversee those 25,000 euros per month that cartageneros spend on this service serve something. "
According to the spokesman orange training "this issue should not drag on because the only victims here are the animals of Cartagena and the people who protect them."
The meeting of the Commission of Inquiry has finished within minutes of beginning with the express commitment that a new meeting was not convened until they are not available in the required documentation and if possible as soon as possible.
