The Commission for the Investigation of Public Works in Navarre will convene 40 people
These include Antxon Alonso, Koldo García and Santos Cerdán, although requests for the appearance of María Chivite, Uxue Barkos, Yolanda Barcina or José Luis Ábalos have been rejected, which will begin in mid-October.
The Committee of Inquiry set up in the Navarre Parliament on the award of public works in the Foral Community has agreed to convene 40 persons, who will pass through the Chamber from mid-October onwards, upon receipt of the required documentation from various institutions and companies.
This was explained at a press conferenceby the chairman of the committee, Irati Jimenez (EH Bildu) , following the meeting held in July to decide on the leadership of the body and the initial timetable, at which more than 100 requests for hearings to be launched from September onwards have been considered by the political groups.
Among others, the businessman and owner ofServinabar Antxon Alonso , former adviser Koldo García and former PSOE Secretary of Organization Santos Cerdán have been summoned, while requests for the appearance of Navarra President María Chivite, former Presidents Uxue Barkos and Yolanda Barcina have been rejected.
However, Oscar Chivite Councillor responsible for the duplication of the Belate tunnel EDO must appear the socialist Bernardo Ciriza and the regionalist Javier Esparza (UPN).
The head of the Office of Good Practices and Anti-Corruption, Edurne Eginoa, or the directors of Nasuvinsa , when some housing promotions were hired, are other people who will receive the call. This list reduces to 40 the more than 100 initially requested. The hearings will begin in mid-October and will take place on Tuesday and Wednesday in two sessions, one at 09:30 and the other at 15:15.
UPN, PP and the Joint Group (Vox) have described the approved project for the Commission as a 'scandal' by rejecting many of the other groups' requests for hearings, reminding them that they should be limited to the purpose of the Committee of Inquiry.
In this regard, in a hearing before journalists, Irati Jiménez recalled that the purpose of the commission is "to examine tenders and awards for works carried out or financed by the Government of Navarre during the last four legislatures, to natural or legal persons appearing in the context of Special Case No. 20775/2020 of the Fourth Section of the Second Chamber of the Supreme Court".
