The Court of Contentious Administrative n ° 1 of Cartagena has issued a ruling by which the City of Torre Pacheco must pay € 10,881.60 to a Local Police, for different concepts not paid by the previous government of the PP, from 2011 to 2015 .

The City Council of Torre Pacheco values ​​the sentence as another example of the inheritance received by the previous executive, whose poor management in the area of ​​human resources continues to weigh on the municipal coffers.

If it had to extend its effects to the other agents, its application would cost more than 500,000 euros, which would result in a serious short-term impact for the municipal coffers.

The new government team argued in its arguments the impossibility of paying that debt by the hand of a municipal intervention report that indicated it.

However, the local government has stressed that it has little hope that the appeal will succeed, given the forcefulness of the ruling, but that it is a moral and political obligation since it is public funds, which will present a remedy for it is the justice that finally decides how the payments are made, as it is already doing in other sentences of inherited matters such as the library case, or the payments for unexecuted urban agreements.

The City Council will also study actions against the accounting and political responsibilities that may arise as a result of damage to the coffers caused by the ruling.

However, the City Council is facing payments of arrears in the payment of social assistance to workers (more than 300,000 euros last year) and continues to work on regularizing the employment situation of dozens of temporary workers who have been providing service in the administration for more than 10 years.

Since February 2018, a new labor conditions agreement has been in place between Local Police and City Council unions, approved by the City Council Plenary and published in the BORM, whose compliance is evaluated by a Monitoring Commission and which has allowed for an increase in patrols and regularization of remuneration.

In the same way, the Local Police has been provided with new cars, stations, clothing, bulletproof vests and various equipment for the exercise of their functions, after years of neglect of the previous government teams.
