Let's change Murcia rejects municipal budget by continuist, privatizing and away from social reality (19/07/2017)

The councilman of Cambiemos murcia Sergio Ramos today criticized the agreement "table stretcher" between PP and PSOE to get ahead the Municipal Budgets of the Government team considering that for all they serve is to give legitimacy to a "continuist" , Defender of the outsourcing of public services and away from the social reality of neighborhoods and districts.

In his speech, Ramos lamented the "political boycott" of this agreement, achieved in "closed meetings," especially for the work of municipal boards, while also criticizing the Socialist Municipal Group that allowed the project Of budgets go ahead in the terms in which the Popular Party wants.

In this sense, he recalled that the group led by Susana Hernández and last year "came to publicly assume that agreement was a mistake and had learned the lesson," but "it seems that was not so" because this exercise has become To abstain from voting.

According to Cambiemos Murcia, one of the most important reasons to reject the agreement is the amendment proposed by PP and PSOE so that mayors or mayors can contract quantities of up to 5,000 euros without taking into account the opinion of the Plenum of the Municipal councils and without the obligation to have three budgets.

"A lack of transparency that is accompanied by a clear commitment to measures that will only increase the great problems of Murcia: inefficient transport, null defense of the garden, heritage and grassroots culture, privatizations and not deepening in a Social model that defends the interests and rights of citizenship, "said Ramos.

The fifty amendments proposed by Cambiemos Murcia, whose aim was to launch a more social alternative project that focused on the needs of citizens, has been rejected with the vote against the PP and the abstention of the other groups Municipalities.

Outsourcing takes 40%

For the mayor, this budget project is especially characterized by emphasizing the outsourcing of public services to the point where it accounts for about 40 percent of the total, that is, 146 of the 380.2 million euros with which The municipiocuenta for the present exercise, once subtracted the payment of interest and the amortization of the debt.

"These externalizations are based on a precariousness of the working conditions of the contract workers, on a deterioration of the quality of the services and on a greater expense for the municipal coffers."

Added to this is the fact that numerous motions adopted in Plenary, such as the commitment to provide Development Cooperation with a greater appropriation, do not have budget allocation.

Only 3.7% for direct management in neighborhoods and districts

One of the harshest criticisms made by the councilman of Cambiemos Murcia is that the Municipal Boards, the organ closest to the neighbors and neighbors of the neighborhoods and districts, will only directly manage 3.7% of the total budget, Thus violating the Regulation of Citizen Participation and even a sentence of the Superior Court of Justice of Murcia.

That is why it has tabled an amendment to increase that percentage to 8%, which would have meant that the Boards had 17 million euros more and would have strengthened the role of these bodies within a new model of public management.
