Now Murcia denounces that Emuasa spends more than 60,000 euros on Christmas food and gifts "while charging Murcia the most expensive water bill in Spain" (03/01/2018)

NOW MURCIA denounces that the Aguas de Murcia-Emuasa company spends more than 60,000 euros on Christmas food and gifts, a practice that "while charging the Murcia most expensive water in Spain."

Councilman Miguel Angel Alzamora points out that this is "totally unnecessary expenses for the provision of a basic public service such as water" and recalls that beyond these expenses published on the Emuasa website, the company is being investigated within the national plot of the 'Pokémon case' for the possible payment of gifts and trips.

Alzamora stresses the fact that Emuasa's accounts "do not have adequate control, since they do not go through Municipal Intervention." That lack of submission of accounts to Intervention, together with the lack of exhaustive control of the private partner, give rise to that expenditures like the disproportionate ones are made at Christmas and we suspect that many others that are not in the transparency portal ".

Alzamora considers this spending on Christmas food and gifts "for more than 100 million pesetas" by a company "whose sole responsibility is and should be the management of water distribution and sanitation in the municipality."

"There is also the circumstance," the mayor says, "that it is a service with a monopoly character, which implies that the neighbors do not have the option of choosing one or the other company, but are obliged to hire the one that operates In his municipality, this character of basic public service that Emuasa lends forces him to be very careful in spending the money of the Murcians, something that according to these figures and what the judicial investigations seem to point to is not taking place. "

The councilor of Now Murcia says that Emuasa "instead of meals, gifts and trips should worry about providing cheaper water to Murcia" and warns that "Mayor Ballesta promises that the water bill would go down substantially not it has a way of being fulfilled. "

"This model of mixed company that we have in the municipality of Murcia, with a private participation of 49%," says Alzamora, "prevents total control over the company by citizens and municipal political groups. This, from Now Murcia we defend a 100% public water and sanitation supply and with a true democratic control that avoids wastage and inefficient management ".
