The spokesman for the municipal group of IU-Greens Cieza, Antonio Penalva, addressed to the Mayor of Cieza an interpellation to know on what date the municipal budgets for 2014 were presented.

In a statement to the media, the mayor ecosocialista recalls that the Local Finance Law provides that "all documentation that make municipal budgets will be forwarded to the full corporation before 15 October of the previous year to its validity for initial approval, amendment or devolution and final approval will take place before the December prior to the year in year 31 to be applied. "

Thus, accurate Penalva, "the mayor, who will have the ultimate responsibility of raising budgets fully, systematically and repeatedly fails over the years this legal precept. If we retrieve the dates that have been made the initial approval of municipal budgets in Cieza in recent years we find that for the year 2010 were approved on January 20, 2010, for the year 2011 on May 20, 2011, for the 2012 June 18 2012 to 2013 on 25 June 2013 and 2014 do not know yet. "

"In any year economic-confirm-councilman ecosocialista the last 5 years municipal budgets have been in place at the beginning of the calendar year as required by revised text of the Law Regulating Local Tax, Articles 168 and 169 and has become a hallmark of this corporation that has not approved a single budget period. "

"Clearly this 'custom', says spokesman IU-Greens negatively influences the institutional image of the City and subtraction political credibility to the government team and the respect for the established time limits is the first indicator of transparency and good budget management. "

In this situation, Penalva asked in his questioning, "if the government team intends to present municipal budgets for 2014 or if instead think work-round with those carried over from 2013."

It also asks the ecosocialista mayor an "explanation of why plea systematically miss deadline each year for approval of municipal budgets, constituting these the most powerful tool that a government has to govern and if not be a true reflection of the unwillingness and apathy that this government is unable to hide for some time.
