The Mayor of Ronda Antonio Marín Lara is proposing that all councillors, from all parties, make public their own, their spouses and immediate family members finance, be it income or patrimony.
This is to include cars, shares and directorship in any Limited "S.L." Companies.
Don Marín would like this initiative to take place before 3rd March 2010.
My feeling is that he will be forced to resign before that date, however, if he succeeds in its implementation the trend could actually be followed by other councils thus making our politicians a little bit more transparent and honest. There will of course be a lot less of them too. I wonder where he got this idea from as it seems to be a growing trend in English politics after all the furore over the expenses scandal.
Could this be a Rondagate?
Unlikely…. but we can always live in hope as more honesty will mean more money staying in the system and being used to improve the towns and villages we all live as opposed to being squandered away and sequestered in private bank accounts all over Andalucia. And at the moment the current system needs all the help it can get.
Well done Mr. Marín!
