Nueva Canarias has confirmed this Friday that the website of transparency of the Island Council of Lanzarote is in a language that nobody on the island can understand. Since 12/10/2014 the law obliges Councils and Municipalities to have a transparency portal, having an extension of two years for these portals to function perfectly, ending its term on December 10, 2016, "something that San Ginés cares very little about", they say from NC.
Nueva Canarias feels a deep respect for the Basque Country and especially for its language, "but in the Canary Islands mainly Spanish is spoken, and official information could be shared in another language that could be English but never Basque". "For our political organization it is inadmissible that the portal that supposedly has to give maximum transparency of what happens in the public administration, is in a language that its citizens cannot understand", they say.
For the left-wing nationalists, "what happened with this transparency website is one more example of the anchoring that Lanzarote has been suffering in these ten years of Coalición Canaria's mandate". Just a year ago, Nueva Canarias denounced that San Ginés awarded more than 800,000 euros to two technology companies for similar concepts, the rental service of an electronic contracting platform, without anyone else appearing in said contest and demonstrating that the description of the contracts was "exactly the same", the contests were published with only "one day of difference", we remember that no matter how much we asked for information about what happened, we never received a response from the Government Group.
Finally, Nueva Canarias affirms that "an administration that wants to hide from its citizens what happens in its management will always result in the suspicion of corruption".
