“They have panicked in the Ministry.” This expressed a source close to the first vice presidency of the Valencian government after the publication by Eldiario.es that about twenty positions of the Generalitat breach the transparency law by not publishing the academic degree they say they have. The information about politicians who lie or sweeten their curriculums, which they have in the resignation of the government commissioner for the DANA their greatest exponent -in an investigation assumed by anti -corruption -has led to a kind of psychosis in the ranks of public administrations and parties, which have asked those who occupy public positions to review the degrees and accredit them. In some departments of the Consell chaired by Carlos Mazón, the order to quickly look for all accrediting documents has been quick.

In the Valencian Executive this newspaper has already found inconsistencies in the curriculum of the right hand of Carlos Mazón in the Ministry of Infrastructure, the strong man who manages the awards of the works of the Dana. Javier Sendra lied in his curriculum in the Diputación de Alicante, as the opposition denounced, stating that he had two masters. Subsequently, he rectified the document and pointed out that they were courses. Mysteriously, when jumping to the regional government, one of these titles has once again been a “master” of senior direction in the curriculum in GVA Oberta. Actually, it is a 140 -hour course that teaches a private business school in Alicante.

Shortly after the publication of the regulatory breaches of these high positions, which would lead according to the law and can carry economic sanctions, the Ministry of Universities has registered an increase in activity for the first weekend of August. A wave of high positions has begun to ask for the proof of expedition of their academic titles to incorporate them into their profile into the transparency portal of the autonomous government, as marked by the law they must make.


Carlos Mazón with José Manuel Cuenca and Santiago Lumbreras, regional secretaries of the cabinet and transparency.

At hours of closing this edition, nine of the highly questioned positions have published in GVA Oberta their titles or documents of the Ministry of Universities that prove that they have fulfilled the higher studies that its curriculum says. The transparency law does not force all to publish them, but the “main merit” of its trajectory, by graphic copy. The general directors and regional secretaries who have rectified their oblivion are, for the moment, the following:

  • Cayetano García Ramírez, regional secretary of the Presidency. One of the members of Carlos Mazón's hard nucleus at the Palau, a graduate in Economics from the University of Valencia and secretary of the body of officials with national authorization. It has been the fastest to look for its merits; As stated in the published documentation, he requested the proof of his degree on July 31 at 7 pm, shortly after this newspaper consults the communication cabinet. García Ramírez has published the proof of the National Registry of Titles, which depends on the Ministry of Universities.
  • Susana Fabregat, delegate of the Consell in Castellón, under the presidency of the Generalitat, has taken the identical step to that of the regional secretary. She has a degree in Information Sciences from the CEU Cardenal Herrera University, as noted by the supporting of the Ministry, as of August 1.
  • Maria Luisa Mediavilla, Undersecretary of the First Vice Presidency and Department of Social Services. She is a magistrate and has published her title as a law degree from the University of Valencia, studies that culminated in 1996.
  • Pedro Carceller, general director of Inclusion and Development Cooperation. He is a doctor of legal sciences – Law, with outstanding cum laude and two masters. The general director has already published his title and contributed to this newspaper the documentation the day after the publication of breaches.
  • Miguel Ángel Sánchez Navarro, director of the Valencian Institute of Statistics. He is a career officer of the Corps of Technical Professors of Vocational and Technical Training of Electromechanics and Superior Automotive Technician, according to its CV. He has published the title of FP of Higher Technician in Automotive, issued by the Department of Education.
  • Asunción Perales, General Director of Hospital Assistance. She has a degree in Medicine and Surgery and has published the title that proves that she finished her studies at the University of Valencia.
  • Miquel Nadal, General Director of Culture. He has a degree in Public Law from the University of Valencia (1985) and has published his degree.
  • Mª Àngels Ramón-Llin Martínez, General Director of Agricultural and Livestock Production. She has a law degree from the University of Valencia. He has also uploaded his university degree.
  • José Manuel Camarero Benítez, regional secretary of Tourism. He has a degree in Psychology from the University of Valencia. Your title can already be checked at GVA Oberta.

Half of the high -questioned positions have already amended this lagoon in its public profile. As Eldiario.es already pointed out, not doing so entails a sanctioning file, which can be resulted in a fine or warning. It corresponds to the Valencian Council of Transparency to initiate this procedure, and the regional secretariat of the branch, which depends on the presidency of the Generalitat, the sanctioning files, if they occur. The Valencian Transparency Law and the Code of Good Governance, which is mandatory for high positions, provide a punishment for breaching the obligations of active advertising, which will depend on the “degree of guilt and intentionality, repetition or recidivism.” The assessment of behavior and sanction will depend on the Transparency Council.
