The municipal People's Party group has asked the prosecutor to investigate whether they are legal swaps that the Government of Lopez and Castejon been used to incorporate seven agents to the staff of the local police in Cartagena without any competition or prior selection process.
The Popular Party has informed the prosecutor that the Government has increased this year the staff of the Police in seven agents pretending that these new officials replaced to as many policemen actually did not abandon his post.
With this system, the government increased the staff without convening a selection process, mocked the legal limit for reconsideration and could arbitrarily decide who is new police in Cartagena.
To achieve this would have produced a web of applications and authorizations, conducted without legal reports, with which he tried to pretend that there had been an exchange of officers with other Spanish municipalities.
"We believe the government has again taken an illegal shortcut to break the rules. He has played with the good faith of many officials and removed seven chances of being police in Cartagena many young people who are waiting for the chance to compete in a competition ".
"The law gives officials the opportunity to exchange their positions with other officials, performing owned a place like in another municipality. Officials the position changed and municipalities do not spend more because they maintain the same template. But in Cartagena has not exchange and have been seven officials, we paid seven policemen and none of them has entered opposition. "
Francisco Espejo explained that the previous government received requests for these swaps are made using to exchange places that were vacant for leave or promotion.
"Our government dismissed it because technicians warned that it was illegal, but now, with the same laws and the same technical, there is a new government that itself has made and will have to explain how".
"These things can only happen in a municipality where you do what the boss says because otherwise it can lead to persecution in the workplace and to be publicly discredited."
