â— The formation rejects the popular argumentation and argues that other municipalities, such as Los Alcázares, already have similar commissions

Citizens has described as "cacicada PP reject based on an erroneous report from the secretary the establishment of a commission of inquiry on public procurement in the municipality."
The local spokesman, José Luis Ros, reminded the PP government team that "these commissions are already created in a large number of municipalities in the region, including Los Alcázares, which under a government also has two PP research commissions. "
Citizens proposed to establish a commission of investigation on all the public procurement of the Consistory, after the controversy generated by the revelations by the 'case Roque Ortiz', the councilman of popular of Murcia that recognized in a private meeting that his party used to the concessionaires Municipalities as a political tool to win votes.
"We have been denounced throughout this legislature the 'surprising' number of members of the PP working for the concessionaires of the City of San Pedro, as was reaffirmed during the plenary with the extension for 20 years of the water contract without prior tender in favor of Aqualia ", said Ros.
"What the mayor tells us is that it is illegal to investigate possible irregularities and corruption in public contracts.
But what is truly illegal is to use public resources for private and partisan benefit, as stated by Roque Ortiz, and that this use is not investigated, "added the mayor of Ciudadanos.
"The money of the pinatarenses must serve to have better public services, but the obvious link in the labor of companies that work for the City Council and the PP, makes us distrust that this is so in San Pedro.
That suspicion is what we wanted to clear, but the PP is refractory to transparency and regeneration and has knocked down our proposal to clarify everything, "said José Luis Ros.
