Luis Bermejo regrets "the profound lack of interest" by the Municipal Housing Service and the Department

MURCIA NOW urges the PP to carry out the agreed measures on right of access to housing, as it maintains "an unjustifiable break" two lines of measures in this field.

Thus, the Municipal Commission on Residential Exclusion, created following a motion of Now Murcia, held in December its founding meeting, "but has not since had any working session, and it has been five months," says the mayor Luis Russet.

Moreover, an alternative motion Now Murcia was adopted in plenary on 28 January on impetus to a plan of social rent, contemplating the creation of a working group within a maximum period of two months, "but three have passed and medium and the corresponding council has not convened the meeting "denounces the councilman.

Bermejo regrets that "despite that access to housing is a human and constitutional law, the Department of Education, University Relations and Heritage shows that harbors no interest in implementing housing plans that have a social approach" .

Proof of this is, he says, that "more than three months later still fails to start the municipal rental plan, designed especially for young people, nor bring us to begin to address the historical problem of homelessness in the city ".

The motion now Murcia on traditional chabolismo adopted at the October plenary session, proposed the creation of a commission to address housing exclusion in all its dimensions, beginning its work with the design of a plan, and considering the deadlines and phases for the eradication of this social problem.

For its part, proposed by Now Murcia text approved unanimously, to promote a plan of social rent from the Municipal Housing Service, watched promote the creation, within two months, of a working group consisting of technical service housing, Employment and Social Services, for a municipal plan of rental housing, in order to ensure the right to housing to the citizens of our town from a holistic perspective, in coordination with other administrations and public and private organizations.

This working group, as proposed by Now Murcia, should launch the elaboration of a municipal census of empty homes, conducting a fundraising plan or creating a specific plan of rental assistance for youth.

"We do not know what planning are the priorities and objectives of Service Housing and Councilman Rafael Gomez" said Bermejo, "all they have done so far in relation to housing has been yielding to Urbamusa the management of municipal public park housing, which may indicate who is preparing a strategy to get rid of the municipal park homes, as has happened in other municipalities governed by the PP.
