At the end of last week, Manuel Padín, deputy mayor and Councilor for Tourism of the City of Cartagena, whose only known administrative merit is to do works without a license, made reference to the possibility of moving the Ministry of Tourism to Cartagena.
In relation to this situation, the deputy spokesman of the municipal group MC Cartagena, Jesús Giménez, said that "we do not know if what is announced by Padin responds to the 'jet lag' of his trip to Romania or the propaganda of 'Productions Noelia Rollo'.
The mayor recalled that "in this case, forget Mr. Padin and the 'Government of the lash' that it is necessary to reform the Statute of Autonomy, and we say 're-reform', because a few months ago they unanimously approved a Statute that does not contemplate moving the Ministry to Cartagena if it is not by a law passed with a reinforced majority. "
"Likewise, it will be necessary to provide this Ministry with a budget and location and, of course, move the Tourism Institute and create a Tourism Qualification Center in Cartagena," Giménez explained.
The mayor stressed that "only with budget and beginning to implement policies that project the Region of Cartagena and its coast, which are the base and the flagship of the regional tourism offer and that are always hidden under the name of Murcia, will be moving really tourism to the Comarca del Campo de Cartagena ".
"We are very afraid that they will comply only with putting up a sign and making some inaugurations, the only thing known by the 'Government of the Lash'. They are to spend gunpowder in salvas and not to use it to spend it in what corresponds to Cartagena ", denounced the final spokesman for MC Cartagena.
