The People's Party of Alhama de Murcia wants to do an assessment of the April regular plenary session, highlighting especially the initial approval of the proposal by the Social Welfare Department to amend the city ordinance regulating the award and management of municipal services in emergency situations or need, family support and social integration.
In a critical time like the present to many people who are in vulnerable situations, it is not only necessary but priority modify this ordinance in different ways, but especially in relation to the amounts of aid that had many years without update.
So significantly increase food aid, electricity, water, rent, pharmaceutical assistance, etc..
and incorporated others like paying bills or waste gas.
On the other hand we want to highlight as positive the fact that the group of IU-Green leave on the table the motion presented on measures to ensure the fulfillment of the social function of housing, asking the regional government of Murcia adopt similar measures those adopted by the famous Andalusian decree, which allows temporary expropriation by three years of use of dwellings in imminent eviction.
Since our party thought that this was a populist measure that all he intended was to find a headline that will not translate into any real action for the affected people but instead have adverse effects it will reduce credit and negatively affect the construction sector in the community with more unemployment in Spain.
We believe that there is a political manipulation on the issue of evictions to confuse the public and to avoid being seen clearly that the PP has been the first and only government that has governed the payment in kind for families in vulnerable situations, the first that has paralyzed evictions and the first to have launched a social fund houses.
However we feel good you attempt by four local groups to reach consensus on an issue as sensitive as this and work to bring a joint motion to the next plenary in favor of greater defense of the weakest.
