| The Councilor for Social Rights and Family, Pilar Torres, answers to the PSOE mayor Antonio Benito that "the Team of Government continues with the processing of the files to pay the dining scholarships to 3,000 minors "| Torres: "It is surprising that the municipal PSOE systematically criticizes the Consistory and does not say anything about the inability of the Government of Pedro Sánchez to provide city councils with the necessary funding to face the consequences of the pandemic" The councilor for Social Rights and Family, Pilar Torres, has stated that "the socialist government punishes the municipalities and maintains their suffocation without providing sufficient funds to fight against Covid." The mayor of the PP has answered the councilor Antonio Benito that "the dining room scholarships were extended to the summer period as a result of the consensus between all the parties.

We continue with the management and processing of all the procedures that are necessary to pay these aid to 3,000 minors of the municipality, while the government that leads his party leaves aside the 450,000 Murcian ". Torres has pointed out that "in the Murcia City Council we assume the commitment to pay the dining room scholarships in the summer and we are going to fulfill it.

As we always do.

We have already demonstrated it.

The PSOE, sadly, is specializing in criticizing everything by system" . For the popular councilor, "it is surprising that the municipal PSOE does not say anything about the manifest inability that the Government of Pedro Sánchez is showing to provide municipalities with the necessary funding to face the consequences of the pandemic." "This silence of the PSOE in Murcia so as not to criticize his superiors causes us sadness.

Meanwhile, his Government has not hesitated to break the municipal unity to impose an agreement that will steal more than 16,000 million from the councils.

That double yardstick is incomprehensible" Torres pointed out. Pilar Torres has asserted that "the care of the most vulnerable people is a real priority for the Government Team.

We have demonstrated this since the beginning of the coronavirus crisis with the implementation of special aid, of which we have already paid 2 , 5 million to families ". To conclude, the councilor has indicated that "we encourage the municipal PSOE to address its own party to demand that it provide more funds to the municipalities to articulate measures to alleviate the effects of the pandemic instead of confiscating the savings of the local entities and break the municipal unity ".
