Alicia Morales stressed that "the objective is to gain greater control of costs to improve quality and efficiency, preventing recruitment in few companies and possible misuse of public money to concentrate"
MURCIA NOW points out that it is essential that the municipality of transparency and efficiency parameters are set in the costs of municipal boards.
The request of the municipal formation emerges from the study that has made budgetary expenditure in 41 meetings municipality, a study casts strong conclusions, as spending is concentrated in a very limited number of companies, or that produces a frequent splitting bills.
Such fractionation causes a large percentage of receipts touch $ 3,000 limit to which contracts can be approved by the chairman of the board without having to go through the House.
"The objective of Murcia now," says Alicia Morales, "is to get greater control of costs to improve quality and efficiency, preventing recruitment in few companies and possible misuse of public money to concentrate."
Councillor and spokesperson for the municipal formation indicates that "as measures of transparency and efficiency of spending, we propose that a minimum of 3 estimates for the upper 500 euros under contracts is required, as well as an elementary report justifying their need, which will serve to narrow the cause of the contract. the fulfillment of these two measures would be a guarantee for transparency and access to procurement ".
Now Murcia has carried out the study in the years 2011-2015 the municipality together 41: 29 where it has more vowels 12 other selected because they are representative of the different geographical areas of the municipality and because they have had presidents from different parties.
Meanwhile, the budget items studied correspond to works contracts (not services), specifically to infrastructure;
Buildings and other structures;
Other investment in new infrastructure;
Replenishment and Other Investments in Infrastructure and Real for general use.
Moreover, analyzing the contractors, they have been grouped into a group when they share administrator or parents.
Based on these criteria, the study suggests that Murcia now five companies account for 70% of recruitment, ie EUR 7,062,099.03 10,481,624.06 euros of the total budget items concerned.
Specifically, Asvemar Sodimur SL and SL are the 'group' with higher turnover, 4,637,515.89 euros, also having 95% of their bills of less than 3,000 euros.
Other particularly noteworthy cases are in San Jose de la Vega, where 94% of the executed expenditures were for the company Construcciones Moremur SL.
or El Palmar, where 95% of invoices are analyzed Projects and Services Fco. Romero SL, totaling a turnover of 549,313.10 euros.
Even more striking is the case of 'group' forming Sodimur SL and Construcciones Asvemar SL Espinardo, where in the years 2011, 2012, 2013 turnover accounted for 100% of the items involved, for amounts in 2011 of 117,633.40 euros in 2012 105,014.42 euros and 150,093.08 euros in 2013.
Morales summarizes that "the vast majority of bills studied rub against 3,000 euros (often the amount of 2997.97 euros is repeated), many of them have repeated and many other concepts derived from works carried out by the same companies and / or groups or agree date and amount. "
The councilor explained that "in many cases, works that were aimed at the realization of a sidewalk or maintenance of a municipal facility have been made at different times and / or by various companies. In addition, there is a likely extra cost of many of the works made because costs the same concept, such as placing grids scuppers and vary greatly according to the district or the company performing the work. "
Morales stressed that the study by Murcia evidence now possible irregularities and fraud law, why the municipal formation demands a "change in budget management and execution of spending together."
As noted by the mayor, measures to require an explanatory report and three budgets for contracts of more than EUR 500 "get the one hand, reduce costs, and you could choose the best financial offer even greater quality assurance and on the other hand there would be much greater transparency in access to employment. "
Morales points out, finally, that, now Murcia "study the possibility of requiring the original invoices, accounting data, audit reports and other documents necessary for further study of possible irregularities, and put all this documentation available to those instances deemed appropriate ".
