The Platform for the Defence of the Archaeological Heritage of San Esteban rejects the statements of the Director General of Fine Arts and Cultural Enrique Ujaldón on Saturday October 9 at the opening of Manifesta 8, in which he blamed the delay in the declaration of BIC St. Stephen archaeological Huermur the action brought by and waiting for the answer from the experts.

The Platform states that:

1. Huermur resource is not an impediment to declare BIC the site of San Esteban, since that appeal and received a reply on May 13, the date from which the silence of the Administration means the dismissal of the appeal and therefore that is the answer, according to the Administrative Procedure Law 30/92 Article 115.2, and that the Act unambiguously expresses the three months to respond to general appellate proceedings.

2. They have fulfilled all the conditions for the declaration of BIC, since they have the support of the Advisory Institutions and that is what establishes the Heritage Act.

3. The statement of St. Stephen BIC archaeological site, to ensure that if in the vicinity of the archaeological site are remains belonging to "the Arrixaca Arrabal" have the same protection.

4. The Platform wants to remember that soon will be a year since it began proceedings to declare San Esteban of cultural interest, without having had so far not even a decent protection.

Emphasizes the possibility that he might suffer the same fate that more than 200 records BIC expired during the tenure of Lord Ujaldón such as: the Teatro Cervantes de Abarán, the parish church of San Bartolomé de Librilla, the palatial residence of the Marquis of Rozalejo in San Javier or the Building "La Tercia" (Palace of the Knights of Santiago) in Caravaca de la Cruz.

If this happens the site would be administratively unprotected.

5. For all that the platform requires the Director General of Fine Arts BIC declaring the site of San Esteban at the earliest, as they meet all the requirements set by the Law on Cultural Heritage in the Region of Murcia.
