The mayor of Alhama de Murcia, Diego Conesa, presented this morning at the Ministry of Industry, Energy and Tourism the file for the Declaration of National Tourist Interest of the Mayos festival, after the plenary agreement of last November 28 that approved unanimously perform this procedure.
On January 31, 2013, the Plenary of the Corporation requested this recognition from the Secretary of State for Tourism.
To this end, the agreement, the memorandum and explanatory annexes, documents and audiovisual material that completed the file were forwarded, with the objective that this body issue a report, as reflected in ORDER ITC / 1763/2006, of May 3, by which regulates the declaration of holidays of national and international tourist interest.
The application file, together with the favorable report from the Autonomous Community, was sent on April 1, 2014 to the General Subdirectorate for Development and Sustainability of the Ministry of Tourism.
After studying it, the Deputy Director General asked the City Council of Alhama de Murcia to correct the file by accompanying her writing with a technical evaluation note that indicated the requirements of the application.
After the referral of correction by the City Council, on February 9, 2015, the General Subdirectorate for Tourism Development and Sustainability reported that, once the documentation received was reviewed, only four promotion actions were considered valid, being necessary to provide sixteen promotional actions more within 10 days and, if the required documentation is not received, the corresponding procedure was declined in its right.
However, when they met, the declaration could be requested again.
That is why in 2015 a complementary promotional action was carried out and during the years 2016 and 2017 there have been 17 more actions, so that the file now includes a total of 22 insertions in traditional media (written press, radio and national television), thus meeting the established requirements.
The Department of Tourism has continued to date the procedures to request again the declaration of festivity of National Tourist Interest for Los Mayos, "for the benefits that could bring to our party this title, exclusively honorary," Councilor Alicia Martinez explains .
