The initiative explains that on 30 January, the Court of Auditors issued a report on irregularities in municipal contracts, including service libraries under the consistory.
This report stated that there are services to be provided in full or arrange private companies run race officials, which, according to IU-Green, "was inconsistent with the formula that applied the City, in which the service was provided officials, labor and private contractors. "
Councillor signed the motion, Esther Herguedas, has indicated that the council decided to take it holistically managing this service and in Parliament last month modification of the staff of officials was approved to create 18 parking attendant library.
According Herguedas, this decision was published in the Official Bulletin of the Region of Murcia through a public announcement of two competitions to create a waiting list of auxiliary libraries and other ordinances.
The mayor pointed out that compliance with the deadlines in that call seems to indicate that the addition of these new officials will not occur until early October.
Meanwhile, the company 'Expertus', responsible for providing the service running with 33 workers in different types of employment, stopped doing so by end of his contract on May 17, according to the councilor says.
"Since then, libraries work with time restrictions and have lost 137.5 hours per week of service, to which staff adjustments, which have forced the change of opening times smaller libraries are added, which has moved from the afternoon to the morning. "
Herguedas, who stressed the damage this means for users because it has occurred in exam period, this fact has added to the anticipation of closure of municipal libraries in August and "other adjustments" that could be implemented to fit the summer holiday shifts.
In his opinion, "it is incomprehensible how did we come to this situation because the City Council could have acted more diligently to avoid this problem."
"You can not tolerate service suffer these restrictions without at least try to put some solution which can overcome the situation, something that is possible from a legal point of view and what only requires political will," he remarked.
