- "I do not understand why it has been decided to bring the 2018 budgets of the ADLE to the Governing Council when we do not have the draft of the general accounts for this year, and without clarifying what investment capacity we are going to have with the new availability of this surplus. year announced by Minister Montoro, "said the spokesman for Citizens in Cartagena, Manuel Padín
- Citizens demand the convocation of Local and Regional Employment Board
The spokesman for Citizens in Cartagena, Manuel Padín, today attended the Council of the Agency for Local Development and Employment of the City of Cartagena (ADLE) that, among other matters, discussed the proposal of the president of the ADLE, Ana Belén Castejón, to the Governing Council regarding the approval of the Budget Project for the financial year 2018. The proposal has not gone ahead due to the abstention of the groups of MC, CTSSP-Podemos and Ciudadanos and the vote against the Partido Popular.
The orange training spokesman, Manuel Padín, does not understand "why it has been decided to bring the 2018 budgets of the ADLE to the Council when we do not have the draft of the general accounts for this year, and without clarifying what investment capacity we are going to have with the new availability of the surplus this year announced by Minister Montoro ".
On the other hand, Manuel Padín has pointed out that "for want of a better analysis, we consider that they are continuous accounts without any novelty where approximately the same amounts are allocated as in 2017 for the same programs, and where the amount destined by the City Council to the agency at 215,000 euros, that does not reflect the commitment to employment that the Government of Cartagena claims to have. "
Manuel Padín says that his group is missing new lines of action to promote employment, and a more determined investment, "eliminated the budget corset of the surplus we understand that now the City has more opportunities to invest in policies that combat unemployment, but we have not seen any of that in the proposal that has been presented to us. "
When will the Local and Regional Employment Bureau?
Citizens today demanded the convening of the Local Employment Committee, which met for the last time on April 24, 2017, and has asked the Government of Cartagena to stop dragging their feet on this issue, "10 months have passed in which we have seen nothing of what they promised in the last session, among other things, the proposal of Cs for the City to organize a conference on the Areas of Logistics Activities in Spain, with representatives of the ZAL of Algeciras, Asturias or Valencia to know their experience, as well as the influence they have exerted on the economic development of their environment ".
"We do not know anything about these days, nor do we know anything about the development of the Strategic Plan for Employment in Cartagena," laments orange spokesman.
Employment Regional Table
"Cartagena does not reduce unemployment at the same rate as other municipalities in the region, and unemployment figures have been stagnating over the summer of over 17,500 people," explained the spokesman of Cs Cartagena, which considers this situation " inexplicable "that the Community has not moved a finger to convene, after almost five years, the Regional Employment Committee." The last time the County Board was held was on November 28, 2012, at that time, responsible for Employment of the Town Councils of the Comarca, as well as trade union delegates and business organizations, met for three hours in San Miguel, and even then they did not manage to finalize some 26 proposals to combat the unemployment that arose at the beginning of the year 2011 ... "It is a joke to all the inhabitants of the Region of Campo de Cartagena, a shame that Ciudadanos wants to correct, for which we have asked our compañeros in the Regional Assembly that impu
lsen a new call to refound the Regional Employment Board, with new assessments, new objectives, and new strategies, "concluded the spokesman for Cs.
