Summary sheet
- Urban development - Construction
The project concerns the Region of Madrid New City of Justice. It will be an integrated urban development complex which will centralise in one single compound all existing judicial bodies and services that are under the responsibility of the Autonomous Region of Madrid (Comunidad Autónoma de Madrid).
The main objective of the project is to improve the quality of the public service of justice administration, pursuing the following objectives: - Centralise the judicial buildings in a single headquarters, solving the space deficit and the aging of some of the current buildings; - Generate reserve spaces, in order to cater for future extensions of the judicial administration in Madrid; - Improve the effectiveness and functioning of the judicial bodies, eliminating the reduction in the operability of the justice administration derived from the dispersion of the judicial offices; - Provide modern and functional infrastructures to the judicial bodies of Madrid, so legal officers can carry out their activities with the best possible quality; - Protect victims of crimes and the privacy of users, implementing spaces for specific attention and separation of circulations between detainees, officials and the public; - Creation of fully accessible judicial infrastructure, without architectural barriers and with the implementation of the necessary measures to achieve universal accessibility in judicial buildings, which allows effective access to justice for all persons with disabilities, under equal conditions as the rest of the users of this essential public service; - Optimise resources by reducing the costs associated with the lease of the buildings, the maintenance and upkeep of the facilities, as well as the costs associated with common services, through the configuration of a single compound that enables the achievement of efficiency gains by managing optimised lifecycle costs of a single centralised infrastructure; - Contribute to achieving the objectives of budgetary stability or financial sustainability, promoting a long-term reduction in costs derived from the operational functioning and efficiency of the service.
The Project is part of the urban development plan named "UNP.04.01 Ciudad Aeroportuaria y Parque de Valdebebas" (CAPV) for which a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) has been performed in compliance with the EU SEA Directive 2001/142. Given the urban nature of the Project, the competent authority concluded that the Project does not have a significant effect on any conservation site in accordance with the Habitats (92/43/EEC) and Birds (79/409/EEC) Directives. Both, the resolution and the SEA report have been duly published in the local authority portal. The requirements of the applicable environmental legislation (mainly EIA Directive 2011/92/EU as amended by Directive 2014/52/EU) will be verified at appraisal.
The Bank will require the Promoter to ensure that contracts for implementation of the Project have been tendered in accordance with the applicable EU procurement legislation, for contracts above the threshold 2014/24/EU as interpreted by the Court of Justice of the EU, with publication of tender notices in the EU Official Journal, as and where required. Both, the tenders and subsequent awards of the contracts were published in the CAM's portal and the EU official journal, in conformity with public procurement rules.
