Following a study into accusations that several lifeguards were hired without having the necessary qualifications, the Mayor has relieved the coordinator for Operational Services of his duties and recommended to the Association of Municipalities of the Costa del Sol Axarquia that the contracts of two lifeguards be cancelled.
The coordinator for Operational Services, Antonio Miguel Navas, has been removed from his post for presenting a report proposing the hiring of two people who lacked the necessary qualifications relating to the handling of rescue craft.
In addition, and effective immediately, Nieves Atencia will become Councillor for Beaches.
