This morning has appeared, in the Consistorial Palace, the candidate for Mayor by MC Cartagena and municipal spokesman, José López, accompanied by the president of the Bureau of the Province, Antonio García, and the representative of the Federation of Neighborhood Associations of Cartagena and Region (FAVCAC), Aurelio Valverde, to assess the express reform of the Statute of Autonomy of the Autonomous Community, which will be approved next Monday at the Regional Assembly.
In October 2005, the Special Commission for the Reform of the Statute of Autonomy of the Region was constituted.
Fourteen years and four legislatures later, the four parliamentary groups in the Regional Assembly, PP, PSOE, C's and Podemos, have reached a consensus to act with their backs to all the inhabitants of the Region, closing an express reform of the Statute to few dates of the end of the legislature, which has led José López to affirm that "the range of colors is wide, but none blushes because they all play the same".
In this sense, Lopez has denounced "the umpteenth lack of respect for the inhabitants of this Autonomous Community and, especially, with the territory that gives historical entity, Cartagena.The most important rule is mounted in a cafeteria and without anyone read it, or know the text, or can provide any ideas that can improve or balance the excessive power of the capital compared to other municipalities.
The cartagenerista leader has lamented the lack of transparency of the regional deputies, since "we are three days of approving the legal framework of this Autonomous Community and it is not known what that norm says and it is March 29, 2019, not 1940 If I belonged to any of those parties, I posted the text on my website, "assured the Carthaginian leader.
Also, the mayor of MC has shown that parliamentary groups "have taken a day to say that they will vote, after I myself demanded that feeling of precariousness, improvisation and weakness do not cover 45 votes."
Objective: to silence society
On the content of the reform of the Statute, the mayoral candidate for the Cartagena training has said that "I can not assess the content but I remind you that the name of the Autonomous Community harms 44 municipalities, that the second decentralization is more than necessary and here neither comarcas nor metropolitan areas, we are in the first recentralization around Murcia, although if they believe that we are going to let them advance in the management of the decisions that involve the development of our territory, I can tell you that they are wrong, that we will fight so that they stop stealing our present and the future of our children. "
All this, despite the fact that, as indicated, "the work table for the restitution of the province concluded its viability without any objection."
The parliamentary groups in the Assembly have ignored, according to Lopez, "that we are nobody on a national level and they deny us even survival, as with water, and that in Cartagena many pages of the history of Spain have been written, and that this territorial demarcation can not be understood without it ".
"But of course, we had to prevent these issues from being debated, we must try to silence society", the MC leader has rejected.
A process of fourteen years closed in false
The Statute of Autonomy of the Region dates from June 9, 1982 and, as has been indicated, its reform process began in 2005, in the VI Legislature.
Two years later, at the beginning of the VII Legislature, it was announced that these works were reinitiated to give continuity and conclude them.
However, fourteen years have elapsed before they are finalized.
The express reform of the Statute comes without assessing the 50,000 signatures submitted by MC in 2007 in favor of the province, nor the studies of different professional associations and the university environment that guarantee the benefits of the province.
Nor is the work carried out by the Bureau of the viability of the province of Cartagena, approved in the plenary session of the City of Cartagena in October 2016 at the initiative of MC, and formed by parties, neighbors and the Platform for the Biprovincialidad.
Last October, 2018, the Bureau of the province delivered in the Regional Assembly Record the conclusions of its work that are summarized in "the existence of a detrimental centralism, support for regional decentralization, the legal viability of the creation of the biprovincialidad, as well as the incorporation in the reform of the Statute of Autonomy of the reference to the province and to the restitution of the province of Cartagena ".
Antonio García: "The process is indecent"
As a sign of the lack of interest of the Regional Assembly and, in particular, of the president of the regional parliament, Rosa Peñalver, to know the conclusions of the Mesa, Antonio García recalled that he requested to hold a meeting with Peñalver, by request for registration before the Assembly, in September and in October 2018. It was not until December 14 when the president of the regional Parliament responded to this request declaring herself "as a non-competent person" to deal with this matter, having to wait until March 5, after the public denunciation of MC, so that this meeting could be carried out.
The president of the Bureau of the viability of the province of Cartagena has stated that "we want to know and be respected, the process of preparing the reform of the Statute is indecent and improper of a developed democracy."
FAVCAC denounces the lack of transparency and participation
On the other hand, the representative of the FAVCAC, Aurelio Valverde, has indicated that "the Statute of Autonomy should be something that all the citizens of the Autonomous Community felt as their own, however, the lack of transparency and participation in the reform has had as a consequence that no one has been heard, therefore, from the Federation we understand that this process is unacceptable.
