Luis Medina is the commission agent and enters the Treasury's list of defaulters

Thursday's list of defaulters was made public by the Tax Agency. This is the ninth such publication since 2015, when the Ministry of Finance, led by Cristobal Monteros, published this "black document" that lists names of individuals and legal entities with higher debts to 600,000. These numbers were lowered from the previous million euros.

The new June list shows 7,037 taxpayers, which is 3.3% less than December's. They owe 17.700 million euros to Treasury. This figure is also lower than the 18,200,000,000 in the previous publication.

1.387 of all debtors were natural persons with a debt amounting to 2,125 million euros. This is consistent with the previous list. There are 5,650 legal entities, which is lower than the December publication's 5,910. They also have debts of less than 15,585 millions euros.
