The “very pronounced increase” local taxes were indispensable, say to the Court of Auditors, for ” maintain the balance in response to severe corrective measures of the government “, and after these measures today the weight of taxation” is the limits of the compatibility with the local fiscal capacity. ”

“On the revenue side – reads the foreword to the report – the root of a biasing mechanism, for which the competition of local authorities to fiscal targets weighs, ultimately, the taxpayer in terms of tax increases, originates in the heavy and repeated cuts to state resources arranged by financial maneuvers that continued in 2011, it echoed the chronic delay in the re-composition of the sources of financing of the expenditure necessary to ensure efficient public services and economic. This compounds and It makes permanent the inefficiency of management, despite the significant increase of the own revenues (+ 15.63% compared to 2013) which increases the financial autonomy beyond the threshold of 65% and absorbs the progressive reduction and constant transfers (- 27,29%). “
