- "Well managed, a commission of investigation allows to clarify certain events and even study specific aspects of municipal operations to promote improvements," said the spokesman for Citizens in Cartagena, Manuel Padín
The Municipal Citizens Group has expressed today that the Municipal Research Commissions can and should be instruments to improve transparency and municipal work, spaces to analyze if there are political responsibilities on municipal management that have caused some kind of controversy or a legitimate legal doubt and that are compatible with other actions through the courts.
The orange training promoted one of them, which investigates the management of the CATAD, and has supported so far all those that have been proposed in the Plenary.
"If it works, a commission of inquiry will clarify certain events and even study specific aspects of the municipal operation to promote improvements," said the spokesman for Citizens in Cartagena, Manuel Padín.
On the other hand, Citizens believe that there is an express regulation for the municipal research commissions, "from Citizens we are going to promote the study of a specific regulation for the correct development of these commissions that the Organic Regulation of the Plenary (ROM) must gather; we want to specify what issues can be taken to this commission, if they exclude or not facts that have led to the opening of criminal proceedings, that the object and municipal competence of the investigation, its periodicity, the maximum duration, the reserved character or public of the sessions, the possibility or not of retransmission, the composition of the same, with the presence or not of internal and external advisors, among other issues ".
Despite the virtues discussed above, the spokesman for Citizens, "does not escape that badly taken, as has occurred in the study of the management of the Casco Antiguo Society chaired by a councilor of Podemos, can produce the opposite effect to that it is intended, that is, to obscure and distort the facts, to divide the positions of the political groups until a consensus report is impossible, to distort the reality in an interested way to fit it with the political program of the day, these commissions, which were born with a noble purpose , they end up turned into mere instruments of political propaganda ".
"It is also worth asking about the ability of this Corporation to investigate various facts, what is the limit? Asks Manuel Padín, can we establish 10, 20, 50 investigation commissions without prejudice to the daily work we must do for the good? of citizens It does not seem reasonable or possible to investigate and accumulate so many issues and wait while they serve for something useful, "said Manuel Padin who recalls that unfortunately the existence of nine committees of inquiry has not prevented them from being taken to the ordinary plenary. its research objects, which has promoted the saturation of the plenary sessions.
In addition, the orange spokesman fears that "some political groups in this City Council are taking advantage of democracy to attempt against democracy, that is, trying to saturate and boycott municipal activity and government action by promoting an unaffordable number of commissions."
