The proposal of the mayor of MC has the support of the president of the FEMP, Abel Caballero
This morning, the spokesman of MC in the City of Cartagena, José López (MC), has transmitted the positioning of the training cartagenerista during the debate of the extraordinary plenary held for the modification of Chapter I 'Personnel Expenses', of the 2017 Budget , to cover the hours of the Special Dedication Regime (RED).
The mayor has begun clarifying the favorable vote of MC, to support "a system that we do not believe", as the budget amendment approved today would not take place if there is "an administration with adequate and necessary staff for the services that must be lend".
Without entering the very few public employment offers promoted during the last twenty years, MC has defended that the amendment voted "is the last of these characteristics", forgetting "a disastrous stage in the management of municipal human resources, which may begin overcome, as has been done in many other areas since 2015. "
López recalled the commitment of MC to translate the magnificent management led by Isabel García (MC) into an increase in the municipal workforce, which would avoid paying overtime (RED).
Towards an improvement of the service and optimization of the expense
Both objectives have been a consequence of the work of reorganizing the municipal accounts.
For this reason, the "Nieto labor doctrine" has been left behind, those that were based on "improvisation policies, which still weighs down on us", remarked the MC spokesman.
Evident economic progress
The councilor of the training Cartagena has contextualized the current economic situation, after the amortization of the Adjustment Plan ("those 35 million bills that had to be paid with an ICO loan because the PP had them in the drawers"), lamenting that "there is liquidity "and that, despite this," can not be used to create new stable jobs and to pay overtime ".
At the time, he recalled his proposal, dated in January this year, as president of the Economic Development and Employment Commission of the Spanish Federation of Municipalities and Provinces (FEMP) in which he bet on investing the "good economic results of the City Councils in improvements of the municipal services increasing the templates ".
The proposal was approved by the FEMP, an entity that has been demanding from the Government of Spain the power to comply with it.
Continuity to a work started in 2015
José López has continued his speech pointing out the desire to deepen "in the lines of work established in 2015. Let us get away from old vices of disorganization that generate needs like the current one".
Below, he has listed some of the main shortcomings of troops that affect "brigades, police and firefighters."
With the necessary increase, has continued, will allow "their heads, not politicians, can better organize services, increase employment and results are satisfactory for the inhabitants of the municipality, which will feel more secure, more served."
Self-demand
The MC leader stressed that "we are satisfied with the management and foresight of our government, but we are not satisfied and we trust that the cruise speed reached by the administration after years of paralysis will not be slowed down; regret in Cartagena more unpredictability and waste and yes celebrate the optimization of resources and improving services to citizens. "
"We believe that this must be reflected in the municipal budget 2018, first without the shadow of the Adjustment Plan," he added.
A modification that does not affect investments
Finally, Lopez stressed that "the modification of one million euros can be met without abandoning the most ambitious municipal investment plan in decades (Plan ISA), maintaining the important and sustained tax reductions, or the significant reductions in municipal hiring. In summary, the greater control of the expense and the increase of the investment ".
A flattering situation that has legitimized, in addition, the expansion of the "now habitual, and for years non-existent, offers of public employment, which must serve to continue improving municipal services and employability, against the inherited negligence. the accounts square ", he concluded.
