The PSOE Councillor Juan Patricio Castro warns of the dire economic situation in the city of Murcia and the bad management of PP.

First, the local government has presented the 2010 general account out of all the deadlines established by law, including the management and efficiency indicators leave much to be desired.

Regarding the level of implementation of detailed expenditure budget-Castro was 79%, 3 percentage points less than in 2009, accentuates undoubtedly mismanagement carried out by the Popular Party.

The 2010-continues expenses-amounted to 389 million euros compared to 490 budgeted definitely, and of these only 389 were paid 291 million euros, 75% percent of spending, so have not paid more than 98 million euros.

Significant delays

"It's more than obvious that the deficit is falling Consistory on specific services such as payment to suppliers, denounces the socialist mayor who also described as" very revealing "that the average period of payment of invoices are placed in four and a half months, compared with average collection period that is less than one two months.

"As citizens we pay our taxes in a timely manner, the City does not pay its debts religiously," reiterates Castro, who recalls that "these significant delays in the payment of bills in excess of four months and a half behind the Consistory forced to pay default interest that makes the law, so original is an increase of these bills. "

Councilman Socialist Party denounced the cuts also carried out by the PP are causing negative and very negative effects on economic activity.

And most troubling, he continues, is that the situation in 2011 is still worse, as they are failing to pay millions of euros to companies that supply goods and services to the City, such as urban transport services, urban engineering and thousands of small and medium enterprises.

Two out of every ten euros

Another significant finding of the 2010 numbers is that the investment per capita is absolutely ridiculous, says the mayor of the PSOE.

For every 10 euros you enter, the City spends only two, although E Plan funds, with another year CARM insignificant investment for municipal coffers and for all citizens residing in the municipality of Murcia.

"Just apply cuts and do not invest the least", he concluded.
