The motion of censure against the mayor of Cartagena, Noelia Arroyo (PP), has not gone ahead. The joint proposal of the local Citizen Movement party (MC) and PSOE, supported by Sí Cartagena and two former Vox councillors, already had little sign of succeeding after the latter two dropped out of the initiative which, however, was debated and voted on this Tuesday.

The shortage of skilled workers is forcing authorities and municipal institutions to take action: recruiting processes must be made more efficient, more digital and more attractive. At the same time, the requirements for proof of IT security, data protection and compliance are increasing – both internally and to external auditing bodies. At the latest when IT, data protection or the staff council are involved, a software decision becomes a fundamental question: How secure is the system used?
