Somos, through its spokesperson in Arrecife, Borja Rubio, has denounced the attempt to appoint the Director of the Arrecife House of Culture by decree, through a provision from the Councilor for Culture, Rafael Juan. The formation, which requested the appearance of the councilor regarding his management in Culture in March, and which recently accused the municipal government group of "incompetent and negligent" in the failed attempt to open the House, now demands that the direction of the House of Culture be decided in a public call for the position, where there is a fair assessment of merits.
"After the absurdity of the failed inauguration of the House of Culture, now comes the attempt by the Councilor for Culture, Rafael Juan, to appoint the direction of the same by decree. We will ask that the position be urgently generated in the Municipal Job List, and that it be subsequently put out to public call. We will not allow more cronyism, nor more opaque processes," says Borja Rubio.
They will take it to debate in the next Arrecife Plenary Session
Somos Lanzarote also announces that it will take to the next Municipal Plenary Session the proposal that the direction of the House of Culture be decided in a public call for the position, as well as ask for explanations for the change of name of the same, by dispensing with the recognition of Agustín de la Hoz in its nomenclature.
"In the next Municipal Plenary Session we will ask that the direction of the center be decided through equal opportunities in a public call, likewise, we will demand from the councilor D. Rafael Juan and the government group explanations about the change of name of the institution," concludes Borja Rubio.
