The seremi of the Ministry of Housing and Urbanism (Minvu) Ñuble, Antonio Marchant, says he was surprised after seeing in a television report on Channel 13 that the hyperlinks to know the details of the transfers that the seremi has made to non-profit organizations , in the case of his portfolio, were restricted to the general public, a matter that contravenes current transparency laws.
Aware of the delicate nature of this situation, due to the scandals discovered in the Minvu of Antofagasta with the Democracia Viva foundation, he assures that “we immediately reviewed the situation and realized that indeed, we did see it because we had the ministerial keys, but the rest couldn’t, so I contacted the computer units in Santiago and they explained to me that there was a technical failure because our system was very old”.
He would later provide more details of this situation to the Ñuble segegob, Valentina Pradenas, who would confirm to La Discusión that “indeed there was a computer problem but it was already resolved in the course of the day, so now, anyone Anyone who wants to know the details of these processes can enter and review them without any inconvenience.”
It would be through a statement that the Minvu would add to the above, that “this Seremi de Vivienda y Urbanismo emphasize that it carries out continuous and permanent controls regarding its internal processes, ensuring compliance with the instructions established in the regulations and with total adherence to probity and transparency. As Seremi de Vivienda de Ñuble, we emphasize precisely that, in which transparency is a permanent value in all processes, both internal and those that require consultation by the public”.
No summary notice
In any case, Marchant added that “nobody called me from that channel to ask us about this situation. If they had called me, everything would have been clarified that same day”, and with regard to the summary that had supposedly been filed against that regional secretariat by the Council for Transparency (according to the television report) he assures that “so far, no one He has notified us nothing.”
As expected, after this journalistic complaint, the rest of the chiefs of cabinets of the rest of the seramias, received the order to review the situation of their information access systems.
“And no more problems were found, but in any case these processes must continue to be monitored periodically,” they asserted in Segegob.
