Regarding public procurement, the president of CONPYMES recalls that “ the public tender is carried out by the large company and then subcontracted to the SME . ” The large company charges within 30 days and then pays the SME whenever it wants. We have worked on the issue and we propose that the subcontractor be paid directly or that the subcontractor have access to these contests with smaller lots. It is a key issue for SMEs to access public procurement as can be seen.”
From this perspective, he recognizes that “SMEs Fax Lists generate 70% of employment, we must realize that many administrations pay large companies on time, but it is this company that pays late .” That does not mean that it is clear that there are some administrations that pay late, but it is also important that SMEs access these public tenders, but it has not been easy until now.”
Regarding the implementation of the sanctioning regime , one of the pending issues for years in Spain, “ we have the opposition of CEOE and CEPYME . They have even said in their Observatory on Late Payments that implementing this sanctioning regime was harmful to SMEs, an issue that we do not agree with. We will continue fighting so that there is. If the aforementioned European Regulation is applied, there will already be important sanctioning measures.”
Torres recalls that in our country “ in the transportation sector there is a sanctioning regime and that means that the large platforms are paying within the times stipulated by law. Now it would be important for it to extend to the rest of the sectors of the economy. It is difficult, because PSOE, PP and VOX are against it. With the approval of said sanctioning regime we have reached more than 90 extensions in the Congress of Deputies for approval.”
