The Civic Platform for the Conservation of Archaeological Heritage of San Esteban continues to work actively to ensure that the protection of the site of St. Stephen to be realized urgently, and thus prevent the deterioration of some structures are already suffering due to the carelessness of the administration and the effects of rain of bygone days.

The first of the actions that have been carried out today, has been the expansion of the complaint with the Guardia Civil.

The reason is the apparent neglect on the part of the authorities concerned, the site suffers from a paralyzed judicial order on December 9, the work of dismantling and removal of part of the site, not archaeological excavation work whose suspension is a purely dependent on the regional administration.

From day 9, the only actions that have been carried out at the site have been placed a few pieces on some of the structures clearly insufficient.

Neither the method of protection, or the area covered by it have been necessary for the proper protection of heritage, and this week has been able to observe the onset of damage at the site by the end of the rains end week.

If rains persist, this platform provides such damage is a major consideration, as well many of the plastics have been moved by the wind and rain, revealing the elements that sought to protect.

The Civic Platform has noted in its complaint that, under current legislation, esobligación inescapable from the Ministry of Culture, protecting the archaeological heritage in the best possible way to prevent damage, and warns that the site suffered considerable damage by the negligence administration will ask the cleaning responsibilities in the judicial process open.

On the other hand, this morning, members of the Civic Platform have been delivered to the Directorate General of Fine Arts and Cultural Heritage, through registration, for more than 3,200 signatures of citizens supporting the Initiation of record declaration Cultural Interest (BIC) from the archaeological site of San Esteban with archaeological zone category, which has been submitted from 28 November this year, but yet has not received any response, despite the opening of such record would be the logical first step that should lead the regional administration if it really has the will to preserve and protect the important archaeological site of San Esteban, and shield him from any type of project that could destroy total or partially.

Of course, the Civic Platform is continuing to collect signatures in support of the opening statement of the record of BIC, and will continue to submit to the Ministry of Culture, until this case is initiated.

In addition, and after careful consideration of the case with legal advisors, the Civic Platform has decided to appear at court proceedings opened by the prosecution, and will do so through various associations that have joined the Civic Platform since its inception to continue the development process as stakeholders.

Once arrived, the first actions of the Civic Platform will ask for the urgent demands of duty for immediate protection of the site, further archaeological excavation work and building the site, and the immediate start of BIC declaration file .

Finally, the Civic Platform has reminded today that the only document issued by the Ministry of Culture is the report issued on November 30, authorizing the removal and relocation of the site, which has not yet been revoked by the Ministry itself, to Despite a cessation Writ of Relief of the removal and transfer.

Neither the Department nor the City Council have signed any document rescinding the contract on the joint venture, which is part of The General, was the concession for the project to build an underground car park in San Esteban, which the President himself publicly dismissed Valcárcel the same day on December 9 was issued warrant cessation Cautionary.

These two facts, together with the lack of commitment to found the site and the delay in the declaration file of the BIC, are not credible to the Civic Platform declarations of intent issued by local and regional administrations, and therefore While keeping the call for demonstration for Saturday 19 December.
