UPN has asked the Navarre Government to "take responsibility" for the award of Belate
Javier Esparza says the government will have to "explain" why he gave "76 million euros of work to a Santos Cerdán company" and that he will have to explain why "the procedure that has been declared null and void" was used.
Javier Esparza , spokesman forUPN intheNavarra Parliament , has asked the Foral Government to "face up" and "assume the corresponding political responsibilities" after concluding that the report of the Office of Good Practices and Anti-Corruption in Navarre (OANA) was motivated bythe irregularity that led to the award of the contract for the unfolding of the Belate tunnel
In statements to the media after the Bureau and Board of Speakers of Parliament, Esparza said that they were aware that "the reports of the Anti-Corruption Office or the Chamber of Auditors cannot detect the existence of criminal offences or corruption because they are based solely on administrative matters".
"They cannot go into the cause of certain administrative irregularities detected and reported by officials," he said, adding that "it will be up to the UCO or the justice system to decide."
Esparza insists that the OANA has "declared null and void the allocation of EUR 76 million to the temporary union in which the Santos Cerdán company is located."
He concludes that "if the government finds this to be minor irregularities, it will have to explain it." "Maria Chivite will have to explain why she has awarded a Santos Cerdán company a contract worth 76 million euros."
