PSOE opposition to municipal governance in Ponferrada

Overview

In Ponferrada, the PSOE municipal group has accused the local government of obstructing transparency and preventing the opposition from fulfilling its oversight responsibilities regarding municipal files.

A primary dispute concerns a contract for works near former MSP coal plants. PSOE spokesperson Olegario Ramón questioned the legality of the procurement process, noting that the winning company, Zaobra, submitted an offer dated prior to the official request for proposals and highlighting a lack of standard signatures on documents.

Lidia Coca, the Councilor for European Funds, denied any irregularities. She stated that discrepancies occurred because the initial procurement process was annulled due to a formal error involving European Union logos, necessitating a second procedure which accounts for the company’s existing documentation and consistent project costs.
