Chivite says the UCO report “does not point in any way” to the Government of Navarre
The President of the Government of Navarra, María Chivite, said on Wednesday that the latest report from the UCO of the Civil Guard on the calso Cerdan “does not in any way denounce the government of Navarre for illegality, crimes or corruption” and offered “full cooperation should the judge consider investigating the Belate tunnels”, one of the jobs in which the corrupt plot would be involved.
Chivite, who is in China this week on an official trip, spoke thus in statements to Navarra Television after learning of the new UCO report on Tuesday, which states that, if the judge deems it, Belate’s work “could be incorporated into the set of awards under investigation in this special case”.
The head of the regional council underlined that “it seems that in this UCO report relating to the Belate galleries no details emerge that were not known until now regarding the individual votes – of the legal part of the contract table -, etc., but in any case it was the Government itself that commissioned both internal and external controls in an exercise of transparency”.
Furthermore, he underlined that the Regional Executive “is collaborating with the commission of inquiry opened in Parliament and, of course, full collaboration if the judge considers investigating the Belate tunnels, affirming and with the certainty that there was no corruption on the part of any councilor and obviously of the president of the Government of Navarra in the awarding of this public work”.
