The deputy mayor of Cartagena and national, Pilar Barreiro, will present at the Congress of Deputies, a battery of questions to the Government "to try to make publicly known the Defense Department plans for submarines, if any such plans ".
Barreiro again reminded that the ministry has been moving away from the submersible, has delayed its fairings and even renounced them while still missing at least three years for delivery of the first submarine of the series 80 by Navantia.
"There are no clear plans, practitioners have to suffer submarine weapon improvisation and lack of budgets and hundreds of families who depend on work that the maintenance of submarines provides auxiliary enterprises. Defense has halted such work and I will ask until when, "Barreiro reported.
This year should be careening submarine S-72 "Siroco" and S-73 "Mistral" and the S-74 "Tramontana" should come into the yard next year, after the expiry of the five years between carinae.
This situation can be counted only in the medium term with the first of the series, S-71 "Galerna" just out of Carenero after delays by the ministry defaults Navantia.
Of manifestations in the print media in which the Socialist deputy Sara García acknowledges unaware of Defense plans for its submarines, the mayor has said that "in this case, sure that Mrs. Garcia had told the truth: he has no idea. That is worrying when it belongs to the ruling party of the nation, is on the defense committee and must be concerned with the interests of Cartagena. "
Pilar Barreiro recalled that it was a Popular Party government who signed the ministerial order for the construction of the series 80, thereby assuring the workload for shipyards Navantia.
