The mayor Juan Patricio Castro regrets that, despite it's pouring, the PP in the city does not reinforce social services including specific items that address the basic needs of many people experiencing or at risk of poverty and social exclusion
The figures speak for themselves, both to confirm that there are 50,000 families in the region who do not have any income, one third of which are from the town of Murcia;
and presented today at a press conference by the mayor and council chamber of Finance, and, according to the socialist mayor Juan Patricio Castro, again show the indolence of a government that is not moved by the data of poverty and social exclusion.
Thus, Castro not conceal his surprise by making an initial assessment of the budget would and see how the Department of Social Welfare and Social Services remains virtually as it was, with a small increase of one million euros.
A rise in the PSOE councilor calls ridiculous if we meet the basic needs of many families Murcia are suffering and invest in social rent, in most school meals and school supplies at the start of the special bond public transport for the unemployed, or a social fund to tackle fuel poverty, among other priority issues
Falling real investment
Another of the legs on which weakens the budget refers to the generation of employment.
"While the actual investment in the departments suffer a decline of nearly 3 million, is almost impossible to generate economic activity and implement policies to help the unemployed in the municipality of Murcia, reached the figure of 42,000", also regrets Castro.
6 million euros for current expenditure
Finally, with regard to the expenditure side, the socialist mayor is astonished because instead of saving on current expenditure, the City spends six million more to raise your shade, resulting in a zero savings and, thus, in efficiency.
