This morning, PSOE and C's have prevented the Plenary of Cartagena from declaring the president of the Autonomous Community, Fernando López Miras (PP), person 'non grata' in our municipality for his irresponsible management in health matters and, more concretely, for denying that the health service in the Hemodynamics Unit of the Santa Lucía Hospital is maintained 24 hours throughout the year.
Both formations have starred in a new still photo, who knows if the last of the legislature, to contradict their own vote, which they issued in June 2018 when they supported the initiative of MC to "require the local government to urge the regional executive to This, through the Ministry of Health, determines the uninterrupted care of patients in the Hemodynamics Unit of the Hospital of Santa Lucia.
The denial of this benefit has been the catalyst that has promoted the Cartagena initiative, however, has been based on a chronology of events that leave the health area of ​​Cartagena and the municipalities of the region in the tail of the region and the country .
Thus, it is worth remembering that the Regional Executive continues to fail to comply with the Law of Rosell, of March 21, 2016, which requires the start-up at full capacity of the Santa María del Rosell Hospital as a general hospital.
In addition, the Cartagena continue to suffer the most prolonged waiting lists, at the time of suffering other unjustifiable deficiencies such as the lack of burn unit or the pediatric ICU.
Lives by votes, the perverse game
The content of the motion puts the accent on the accomplice of Lopez Miras in his contempt for the health of the inhabitants of Health Areas II and VIII, the popular candidate Noelia Arroyo, who now, in the electoral scene, tries to appropriate a vindication that she despised during her four years as a counselor.
Arroyo's populist and blacklisting position, obviously, deserves identical rejection.
Withdrawal of fiber cement roofs from schools in Cartagena
The Plenary Session has continued to urge the regional government to draw up a calendar specifying the intervention deadlines for the definitive removal of asbestos from schools, both in the municipality of Cartagena and in the rest of the Region.
The motion, jointly defended by MC and Cartagena Sí Se Puede, requires the completion of a road map by the regional executive in order to eliminate this type of fibrous mineral used as construction material, given its harmful consequences for health.
In the same way, the two formations have expressed their wish that this schedule be extended to the rest of the municipalities of the Campo de Cartagena region and the region.
Urgent and immediate measures in the Cathedral of Cartagena
Subsequently, the Plenary Session of the City Council has supported the argument of the mayor Ricardo Segado to urge the Bishopric of Cartagena and the competent authorities to adopt urgent and immediate measures in the Cathedral of Santa María la Mayor de Cartagena, roofing the temple and thus avoiding the humidity and leaks that affect both the Cathedral itself and its surroundings.
Thus, after the heavy rains of April, neighbors and merchants have repeatedly denounced the humidity and leaks that come from the Calle del Osario and the subsoil of the temple, without the Bishopric or the administrations having attended to their claims.
The action is particularly important due to the filtration of water stored in houses and shops in the area, which is causing damage and compromising the structure of the temple itself.
Facilitate the work of R-Inicia-T
Finally, the Plenary has expressed its unanimous support for the initiative of MC Cartagena, argued by Isabel García, to recognize the great work done by the association R-Inicia-T at the level of prevention of gender violence and reintegration of convicts.
In line with this manifestation and given the need to comply with the Regional Pact against Gender Violence and contribute to the achievement of the aims of the association, it has been determined to provide them with the necessary resources, immediately addressing the problems and deficiencies that presents the location where the entity is located.
Strategic Plan of the Performing Arts of Cartagena
Before the debate of the motions, the institutional declaration that has decreed the elaboration of a Strategic Plan of Performing Arts of Cartagena has been read.
The text, which calls for coordinated work with the associations and entities involved, defends that, based on the relevance of it and its positive social impact, it adopts the institutional commitment to provide a worthy budget to the performing arts in our municipality to guarantee the municipal contribution to the activities designed in this Plan and to which they may be derived.
