Camps Denies €15,000 Fuel Bill, Seeks Probe and Reciprocal Disclosures in Valencia

An internal review now looms over official figures that appear inconsistent with the car’s recorded use.

Overview

  • Camps, in a letter released Thursday, gave the Valencian president permission to hand Joan Baldoví the full breakdown of his office expenses and asked for Baldoví’s own records in return.
  • He rejected the €15,000 gasoline total as absurd and said the car’s logged kilometers do not match the fuel charged.
  • His office said it had asked the Presidency of the Generalitat to open an urgent inquiry and to send a detailed list of fuel payments.
  • Compromís based its claim on an official reply signed by Vice President José Luis Díez and has filed a Corts request for month by month tickets and invoices for 2023 to 2026 covering fuel, tolls, cleaning, meals and lodging.
  • Camps argues the Presidency validates all invoices and proposes a preventive control system, while Compromís calls the spending corruption and pushes to curb perks for ex-presidents, a dispute that could lead to audits and rule changes.
