The PSOE-PP pact on the Court of Accounts separates the directors who carried the ‘procés’

The Court of Accounts was rarely news, and its renewal was less often, especially when it coincided with that of other constitutional bodies, such as the Constitutional Court. But the causes and procedures related to the illegal 1-O referendum change everything. So much that the focus was on expiration of the mandate of the current directors of the supervisory body before it even occurred. In the list of the names agreed by the PP and the PSOE to replace them only two councilors remain and none has had any relationship with the ‘procés’.

Among those who will leave the Court of Auditors when the effective renewal takes place, scheduled for in about three weeks, is the ex-minister of the PP Margarita Mariscal de Gante, which was the one who, in turn, had been charged with the prosecution of the piece whose instruction is about to conclude, the one relating to the allegedly irregular expenditure made by the Generalitat for the disclosure abroad of the 1-O, in which a settlement was set provisional 5.4 million euros that the former presidents had to contribute Artur Mas and Carles Puigdemont, the former vice president Oriol Junqueras and other 31 exalted positions of the Generalitat.

So far the instructional phase has been in charge of the instructor delegate Hope Garcia, which is part of the workers of the Court of Accounts who are not elected by the parties, so it will continue in the supervisory body. His work in any case is nearing completion, because it only remains to verify that the guarantees provided by ERC and by the defendants themselves, replacing those of the Catalan Institute of Finance (ICF), for which the Government created the Complementary Risk Fund, are enough to consider the fixed amount contributed.

Sources from the Court of Accounts tell EL PERIÓDICO that work will continue with total normality until the new directors take office and assume the corresponding procedures.
