The Figueres Town Council has presented the results of an investigation to detect irregularities. The Local Police has stepped up checks to verify that registrations are correct. The aim is to prevent people from obtaining administrative advantages fraudulently.
Thanks to the battering, they have found 804 illegal registrations and have proceeded to remove them from the municipal register.
Methods for controlling the register
According to the council, fraud is detected mainly in homes with many registered occupants. In some cases, a single address had dozens of people registered without any justification.
Inspections have intensified in recent months. The local police review suspicious cases and verify whether the people registered at the declared addresses actually live there.
Damage to municipal services
The mayor of Figueres, Jordi Masquef, has assured that These kinds of irregularities harm municipal services.. Registration allows access to public assistance and services, and fraudulent registrations can overwhelm the system.
Registration is a requirement to access the public health system and for enrolment in the city's public educational institutions. It is not known that the Generalitat is withdrawing health cards.
This type of fraud has been detected in other Catalan municipalities. Figueres wants to curb this practice and ensure that only those who meet the legal requirements are registered.
