The president of the Consell de Mallorca, Llorenç Galmés, inaugurates the meetings organised by the Sindicatura de Comptes, that count with the participation of the Court of Audit
The president of the Consell de Mallorca, Llorenç Galmés, has inaugurated this Tuesday the meetings that take place on the 14th and 15th of April 2025, with the aim of making the local entities aware of the importance of rendering accounts and of what the accounting responsibility means. The island institution provides legal, economic and technical assistance to municipalities that require it.
In his speech, Galmés stressed that “we are living in a time in which citizens are demanding more transparency, more efficiency and more accountability. It is not just a question of complying with the law, but of improving our management as public servants. Every euro invested must be carefully managed and we must be accountable and do so with total transparency.
