few weeks ago published the ranking on Transparency CCAA Transparency International Spain. The results indicate that Andalusia, Galicia and La Rioja yield the highest score while Cantabria, Valencia, Baleares and the Basque Country are in the queue.
I must say that the fact itself to evaluate and make it an independent entity is positive. Welcome everything is to have references. Now we need to study the methodology used to perform a more precise analysis and draw conclusions.
first conclusion addresses the concept of transparency as a tool of struggle against corruption, as that characteristic of a good citizen-oriented government. In this sense, gain weight indicators related to the economic-financial, procurement or management control of the territory to the relationship with citizens.
Second conclusion: the system of evaluation is improved. Allow to be evaluated themselves to do so themselves based on an initial assessment of the independent entity of subjectivity involves a not inconsiderable.
Third conclusion: using only the criterion of "Web Publishing" to assign scores or not. At this point seems to be beyond the simple web publishing as a criterion of transparency in the sense of minimizing corruption. For example, you can publish the results of the award of a contest (adjucatarios and vendors), but that does not mean that the process would not have existed irregularities.
Fourth Conclusion: in my view that the indicators of transparency put the bar at a low level and somewhat unfocused. Is not this very significant for these purposes to be published biographical details of elected officials, budget laws, agreements and bills, etc. ?
Fifth and final conclusion, what is more important? Does the publication (infoxication) or the establishment of management systems to ensure, based on good practice and with the tools necessary, proper accountability?
