Audit committee member Lakhena Leng sees open questions about the financial management of the district of Ebersberg after a report by the municipal auditing association.
District - A better review - possibly by external staff - and more transparency called for Green District Councilor Lakhena Leng with regard to the district's finances.
As a member of the audit committee, she said in the district committee that many questions were still open.
The examination of the district audit office is partly incomprehensible to them.
“It's my job to ask.
After all, we work with taxpayers' money. "
Looking at her reading a report from the municipal auditing association, which extended over a long period of time, Leng said: "I read that and was appalled." There were many complaints there.
However, almost nothing happened.
And she asked the other district councilors whether anyone else had read the report.
After criticism from the Greens district councilor: District finance chief Brigitte Keller speaks of mistrust
There was no answer.
Ling was not more specific.
After all, it is about sensitive points.
"We urgently need to talk about it in a closed session." She did not accuse the district of having suffered great damage.
But: It's about numbers that are important for the decisions of the district councils.
The reaction of District Finance Director Brigitte Keller was clear: She spoke of distrust of the administration, which was not justified.
But Keller also pointed out possible communication errors.
"We'll work that up."
Free voters support Leng's criticism - CSU wants to wait for the “real hammer”
“I don't want that to be pushed onto the emotional level,” says Leng.
It must be possible to make critical comments and still continue to work, she said and at the same time emphasized the great commitment of the employees in the district office.
“I don't want to rock it up.” Leng received some support at the meeting from Wilfried Seidelmann (FW), also a member of the Audit Committee.
There is no report without defects and no administration is error-free, said Martin Wagner (CSU).
However, he considered a fundamental additional test to be unnecessary and too expensive.
If there was a “real hammer” in the reports, the superordinate legal supervisory authority would be obliged to intervene.
