The Court in charge of ensuring compliance with the final judgment that orders the review of the award contract for the integral water cycle to Canal Gestión Lanzarote and by which the contract could be annulled has acknowledged this Friday that "there was an error" when identifying who requested the execution of the judgment. This was conveyed by the Court's Communication Office.
Initially, the Court had confirmed an information from the Efe Agency that Canal Isabel II, the parent company of Canal Gestión Lanzarote, had requested the execution of the judgment of the Superior Court of Justice of the Canary Islands, declared final in February 2019 by the Supreme Court. However, the Chamber later realized an error "in the identification of the company that is urging the execution of the judgment".
The company that has requested the execution of this judgment has actually been EICOH Explotaciones, a company in charge of the collection, purification and distribution of water based in Gran Canaria. The Court explains that "the acronyms led it to confuse both companies".
The company EICOH Explotaciones SLU is in charge, together with Canaragua and Concesiones SAU in a temporary union of companies, of carrying out the maintenance of the sanitation networks, including the recognition of the sanitation networks, preventive maintenance and cleaning and due to incidents of pumping and purification stations, sewerage, emissaries and discharge wells. The contract was awarded in May 2024 for more than 4.3 million euros to this union of companies.
