The Tenerife municipality of El Rosario has achieved a perfect score in the 2025 regional transparency assessment, marking its fifth consecutive year of leading the Canary Islands in administrative accountability.

The Tenerife municipality of El Rosario has once again set the standard for administrative management in the Canary Islands. According to the latest data from the regional government’s Transparency Commissioner, the local council has been awarded a perfect score in its 2025 assessment, confirming full compliance with all regional transparency regulations.

This achievement is not a one-off success; it marks five consecutive years of excellence for the council. The audit, which reviewed 414 public entities across the Canary Islands, placed El Rosario well above the regional public sector average of 8.87 and the municipal average of 8.71.

Local officials credit this consistency to a long-term strategy of institutional openness. Mayor Escolástico Gil praised the hard work of municipal staff, while Transparency head Eric Díaz noted that the high score serves as motivation to further improve service quality and public access to information.

This index is a vital measure of accountability, which is a cornerstone of Spanish democracy. Beyond meeting legal requirements, transparency acts as a tool for citizens to monitor how public funds are used. El Rosario’s top ranking reflects a strong commitment to digitalization and open data, helping to bridge the gap between the government and the public and ensuring that access to information is a practical, everyday reality.
