It 'just a moral issue! One year

It 'just a moral issue!
it also says the Court of Auditors


is not only serious that the Regional Control Section of the Court of Auditors, in the recent decision of last July, has made findings of serious irregularities in the administration of municipal Grottaglie .


is not only a serious matter of those findings of irregularities, which concerns "the approval of the statement well beyond the 2009 deadline", the "misallocated in a lot of turn on certain items", the "failure to respect the domestic stability pact ', the' non-staff expenditure restraint. "

E 'of extreme gravity, on the merits, the Court of Auditors has noted concern that the City Council conduct a way of administering stubbornly insensitive to the most basic legal obligations. And it has detected after two answers to previous requests of the Mayor Bagnardi the Court itself.

beds with care, mistakes and serious shortcomings in the economic and financial discovered by the Court of Auditors and Accounting, is the consequence of political and ethical behavior seriously deficient, as is clearly explained in the same resolution, and not only in accounts that do not return.

The General Accounting Office points out the "systematic delay in filing their financial statements for the financial years 2006 to 2008." Note that the term "systematic" refers to the financial year to three years rather than four since then is also referred to the 2009 budget.

Another serious accounting irregularities, the Court of Auditors found in the "allocation between the services of third parties payables must be entered in other parts of the budget" and is regarded as serious "as it contrasts with the accounting principles and does not allow a proper assessment of the results and balances for the management and could also lead to a circumvention of compliance with the Stability Pact (but not respected). That is not only serious in itself, but also for the serious consequences that may result.

Moreover, the Court of Auditors also highlighted "the almost total absence of adequate planning, which was passed on to non-achievement of the Stability Pact, the violation of which constitutes a serious financial irregularity because it has a negative impact on the containment and the rationalization of public expenditure and, more importantly, on the general objectives of public finance. "In other words, the stability pact has not been observed because it had no necessary and appropriate programming, with inevitable negative consequences on both the expenditure on public finances.

But do not plan and direct the specific tasks of politics? And if the majority was wrong, where was the opposition? Where the city manager so handsomely paid? A municipality that fails to rationalize public spending and to identify the general objectives of public finance, it is clear that he failed his task.

In particular then, referring to the non-containment of personnel costs and, in this case, the recruitment of workers socially useful (LSU), the Court of Auditors not only removes that assumption "for violation of provisions mandatory ", but stresses that such an administrative act" presents profiles of particularly serious since they [the violation] was committed with knowledge and will having this section, already detected in control tests on the questionnaire relating to the budget estimates for 2008. "

then adds that, "circumstances do not of little moment, this Section also found that illegality with respect to the Budget 2009. " From this we can easily deduce that not only the violations are systematic and repeated reminders from the Court of Auditors ignored, but lacked any consideration towards socially useful workers who, after years and years of waiting, will continue to be canceled due to the stabilization of the failure of the municipal administration.

Finally, the Court of Auditors draws Grottaglie City Council "to respect the role and function of this Court" and "comply with the Court's findings" by putting in place concrete measures of self-correction. "It states that" obliteration [Cancel ed] a ruling of this court "constitutes an infringement of the law further to that already found by the Court and resigned, and is symptomatic of a deviation from the regular and legal model of" intolerance "of The [City of Grottaglie ed ] with respect to the rules of the legislature on the containment of public spending. "

So, merciless, wryly observes that "even the City of Grottaglie, like any other body of the Italian Republic - which is one and indivisible within the meaning of Article 5 of the Constitution" is obliged to respect these standards and the principles of lawfulness and fairness, "in the context of certainty and transparency outlined in Article .97, paragraph 1 of the Constitution. "
Respect of rules and specific measures" that the Body [Common Grottaglie ndr] has not made use, not only inottemperante prejudice on this point, but even deciding volunteered to work in the opposite direction, in 2008 as in the following years.

Still pressing, resolutely calling the city council to oversee the proper accounting, financial and economic costs on the implementation and operation contract so for the future is given the utmost attention to the rules that govern the formation of the budget and public expenditure. the violation of rules repeated, daily and is aware of serious financial irregularities, as shown, with risk profiles for future budget balances and the maintenance of sound financial management, and may rightly be regarded as serious and persistent violations of law. "

All findings of the Court of Auditors reported here - the systematic non-compliance with the terms and delays, lack of adequate planning; violation of the Stability Pact; serious financial irregularities and violations committed with knowledge and will, continue deviation from the legal model and intolerance with respect to rules of the legislature, repeated failure, unremitting and aware of the rules - Reflect in the economic and financial constraints, and the same the same severe shortcomings that years eve for the landfill and civic revival complain.

Therefore, no "political laboratory", not "factory", no electoral program should ignore them. Necessary that these serious shortcomings in the way of administering a city of 30,000 inhabitants are amply revealed if you really want to change the policy address that is ruining Grottaglie two decades.
