SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, March 27 (EUROPA PRESS) –
Sí Podemos Canarias, the Popular Party and the Canary Islands Coalition will present a joint proposal to create a commission of investigation on the ‘Mediator case’ and its effect on the corporation at the plenary session of the Cabildo next Friday.
The objective is to determine the nature of the relations and activities of Ángel Luis Pérez Peña, former insular director of Sports, with the alleged corrupt plot and to find out his relationship with other administrations, institutions, entities, companies and other positions and areas of the Cabildo and its president. .
The main opposition group, CC-PNC, has confirmed its proposal, together with Sí Podemos Canarias, to launch this commission, as assured by the counselor Verónica Meseguer, and nationalists and progressives join the Popular Party, which guarantees that get ahead, details the purple formation in a note.
In this sense, the insular spokesman for Sí Podemos Canarias, David Carballo, assures that it is about “clarifying the political responsibilities that could weigh on the people who are involved.”
Carballo also adds that the Cabildo “must carry out an exercise in absolute transparency and put on the table all the information it has available so that the public knows to what extent the island institution is involved in the matter.”
The counselor also states that the commission of inquiry should be “a useful tool to shed light on matters where there are serious doubts about their legality, but in no case should it replace the action of justice.”
From Sí Podemos Canarias they reiterate their “zero tolerance” with corruption and add that they have requested the creation of this commission in the Cabildo because “this institution is precisely kilometer zero of the Mediator case.”
The left formation recalls that its origin as a party comes precisely from “the fight against corruption and the need to raise carpets and open windows so that transparency is a maximum in all institutions.”
The creation of an investigation commission is regulated by article 39.2 of the organic regulation of the Cabildo de Tenerife.
