Elite Taxi uncovers a contract from CAM to Uber of 400,000 euros for 9 days of work
The Community of Madrid awarded Uber a contract of 400,000 euros for 9 days of transfers to health personnel.
This is reported by the Elite Taxi BCN Association, which has delegated the documentation to the Association of Pressure Taxi Project 2.0, so that it can study it and, in the event that they find irregularities, take the pertinent actions.
The contract was made with direct contracting, without advertising or public tender due to the emergency situation, since it was granted on June 19, when the peak of the coronavirus pandemic was at its highest point.
The total amount of the contract is 397,861 euros, an amount at least excessive, if we note that the concession is for 9 days of passenger transport.
45,000 euros a day paid with public money
The Taxi Project Association describes the contract as “scandalous” and “shameful”:
According to Elite Taxi, breaking down the amount of 397,861 euros for the 9-day direct contract, there are 45,000 euros a day delivered to Uber in the middle of the de-escalation, paid with public money with a ‘ramshackle health’ for a company that today and for Through the complaint filed by the Taxi Project, it is being investigated for tax fraud and document falsification.
“It is a shame and a total lack of respect for all the taxi drivers, many of them who were altruistically risking their health and that of their families, making thousands of transfers of toilets during the state of alarm.
One of the most dramatic health crises in our recent history due to the mistreatment they are giving from the PP Government either in the Community or from the City Council to the Madrid taxi ».
