Canarian Government starts procedure to collect unappealed illegal letting fines

[Janet]

Those who have been fined for illegal letting and who have neither appealed nor paid may already have had letters from Rita Hernández, the Turismo minister responsible for inspections and fines, setting out the fine recovery procedures. Some will not have received anything, however, and anyone in this group needs to check urgently if they have been ordered to Turismo for the procedures to be explained in person. The appearance must be made between 9am and 2pm, Monday to Friday, in Turismo's offices in Santa Cruz on the 1st floor, number 35 Avenida de Anaga/Francisco La Roche. Sra Hernández says that failure to appear, or failure of those who've received letters to reply, will result in the Government proceeding unilaterally to full legal effect to recover the fines. JA

I know ... and I'm so sorry ... I wish I'd kept my bloody mouth shut now ...

BUT I was told I'd have the text yesterday, and it was agreed I'd post the announcement so that people would keep an eye out and therefore not miss it. Something might have come up, or José might be writing an essay ... and let's understand it's not his first language and has to be spot on in legal terms.

I've given him my word that I'll say nothing until he gives me the text to print. Sorry, I'm not trying to be cute or coy. I really can't say.
