The People's Party and the PSOE have registered proposals to dissolve foundations linked to parties that have accumulated years of inactivity, as well as to deny subsidies to those not registered in the Register of Political Parties. The initiative responds to the Court of Auditors' report on contributions received between 2021 and 2022, which detected irregularities in these organizations.
A data cleanup in the register of political entities 🗂️
The measure proposes a technical filter similar to a database cleanup: inactive records will be removed and unvalidated entries will be blocked. For developers, this is equivalent to applying an SQL query with conditions on last activity date and verification status in the official register. Foundations with no activity for three consecutive fiscal years will be marked for automatic deletion, and unregistered ones will be excluded from the subsidy flow.
The foundation that has survived doing nothing since 1998 😅
Some foundations seem to have discovered the ultimate trick to receive public money: doing absolutely nothing for years. It's like having an employee who doesn't show up at the office but keeps getting paid. The PP-PSOE pact threatens to cut off the tap to these institutional sweet deals. Now it will be time to find another equally profitable business with less paperwork. Maybe setting up an association of friends of Iberian ham.
