El PSOE acusa al Gobierno de incumplir la Ley de Transparencia y bloquear el acceso a la información

The PSOE in Ceuta has denounced a systematic pattern of opacity on the part of the local government, arguing that the Transparency Law is repeatedly violated through delays, administrative silence, and partial responses to requests submitted by the opposition. This practice not only undermines the principles of good governance and democratic oversight but also transforms access to public information from a legally guaranteed right into an obstructed one, seriously hindering effective scrutiny of public management in sensitive areas such as public procurement and budget execution. The situation is exacerbated by the executive’s previous rejection of a proposal that would have facilitated direct access to executed files, which socialists interpret as a lack of political will to ensure transparency. Of particular concern is the severity of the opacity surrounding matters involving public and European funds, whose management demands the highest standards of accountability. This refusal revealed an institutional resistance that prevents proper evaluation of the correct use of critical financial resources, directly affecting the ability of citizens and elected representatives to supervise public administration. This conflict is highly relevant to open data, as it illustrates the structural obstacles that persist when the publication of information is neither proactive nor accessible. The PSOE’s insistence on demanding immediate changes and strict compliance with legal deadlines underscores that effective transparency requires accessible and comprehensive mechanisms, going beyond mere reactive responses to individual requests. This case serves as a reminder that democratic accountability crucially depends on public data being available in an integral, timely, and user-friendly manner for any social or political actor.
