Una ventana de oportunidad política, para la creación de un Cuerpo profesional de Intervención y Auditoría de la Comunidad de Madrid

Abstract

The aim of this technical study is -in accordan- ce with the recommendations of the Accounting Chamber of the Community of Madrid- (...) to give an answer to the political will reflected in point 46 of the investiture agreement between the Popular Party and the Citizens’ Party for the new Govern- ment of the Community, that expressly proposes the creation of a Body of Civil Servants working as Fi- nancial Controllers for the Community of Madrid. The Internal Control unit might be adapted to new control models and gain presence as a centre to develop public ethics -especially because of the di- mension and repercussions of its reports- related to the social need of positive reactions to the economic crisis, the disaffection towards the political manage- ment, the high deficit and the citizen’s perception of lack of expenditure control from the Public Admi- nistrations. These all are problems that need serious Control units, which head the solutions to wides- pread concerns of civil society with responsibility, resolution and public rigour.
