Inheritance received by AV-PP and CC in Tirajana: 153 days left by PSOE-NC for suppliers

394,62. The previous figure is the ratio of pending operations that this first week as the new Councilor for Economy and Finance of San Basrtolomé de Tirajana, Alexis Moreno, from the Canary Coalition (CC), will find in his office from the management of the PSOE. Moreno knows that house from the inside since until the PSOE broke the local government pact with CC he was the head of Housing. In Santa Lucía de Tirajana the number of suppliers pending payment is 48,09.

But Moreno arrives with one thing in his favor. The pandemic, however, has forced greater efforts and, above all, has led Brussels to approve an escape clause that allows fiscal rules to be frozen. The City Councils have also benefited from this suspension, which after a struggle with the Treasury have managed to see the rule that requires setting a limit above which they cannot spend made more flexible. That is to say: it can use the 121 million euros it has saved to grow in services.
 

Starting this Monday, the new Treasury councilor assumes the mandate of keeping public spending under control without losing sight of the needs of local companies. 153 days is the average payment period to suppliers, according to Airef data, in the south of Gran Canaria. In Spain, this average according to data from the Ministry of Finance was 47,98 days as of March 2023.

CC wants to keep spending under control while aiming to distribute income in such a way that the benefits of this economic exploitation accrue to the local population. In terms of income, CC expects the tourist municipality to help reduce the social gap, promote employment and promote efficient use of recs from the Public Administration.
