“We are talking regarding the interests,” said the counselor for the assets in the Board of Directors of the retirement fund of the city of Neuquén (IMPS), Silvia Martinez, when consulted by the debt of the municipality with the Municipal Institute. On Friday the Board of Directors met and analyzed the payment plan proposed by the Executive.
The capital’s municipality’s lack of payment of employer contributions was revealed at the meeting with IMPS affiliates and retirees that took place on May 31 in the auditorium of the National Museum of Fine Arts. After the salary payment on the last day of the month, the debt increased because the contributions were not deposited.
“We are analyzing a counterproposal in the Board of Directors. They submitted a payment plan, but we talk regarding interests“Martinez said. He indicated that morosidad of the commune climbed to almost 500 million pesos, since it was announced at the end of May, that the executive should 285 million pesos.
The definitions of the IMPS counselor were given in a press conferencewhen the municipal union attended the session of the Deliberative for the sanction of the ordinance that released the payment of profits in 40% of the area to municipal agents. 10% of the permanent plant paid profits until May.
As described, the proposal of the Ministry of Finance was the transfer regarding 140 million pesos as soon as possible and another 100 million before the end of the month. They proposed regularizing before the end of the year, described Martínez. «We have to discuss interests and structure also the payment in time and form of future employer contributions “, held.
He added that because the IMPS has investments that allow it to alleviate delayss of the Executive, the collection of the 1,505 pensions of the municipality is not compromised. In May, the Institute liquidated bills for 100 million, when the delinquency of the capital municipality reached a little more than half of the current figure.
“For the good administration of the members’ money, we have backs to answer. There are investments that generate currencies that we use; that is why it is also the talk with the interests that the Executive has to return before the delay » Martinez maintained. The IMPS reported that he was in surplus condition, but on a “delicate balance.”
The payment problems of the city of Neuquén with the retirement fund began in March. The Treasury Secretariat and Undersecretary of the administration of Mayor Mariano Gaido refused to make statements, while the coordinator of Municipal Management, Gastón Contardi, indicated that the lack of payment was “cyclical” and linked to the period prior to the payment of Christmas bonuses in the commune. He did not explain why in previous years, in the month prior to the Christmas bonus payment, they had had no problem paying employer contributions.
Nor did Contardi inform regarding the debts for the same concept that the municipality has with the provincial social work (ISSN) nor the payment plan that was agreed with that box, according to what the authorities of the Provincial Institute announced in the commission room of the Legislature during the discussion of the anticyclical fund.
“We do not ask for explanations as to why they did not provide the employer contributions. As directors, we do not interfere in the numbers of the Executive and we expect them to do the same with us. If there is something to correct, let us know and we will see how to reach an agreement, “said Martínez.
