Cartagena, Thursday November-19.
Citizens spokesman Cartagena, Manuel Padin, met today with Secretary General of the Association for Real and Effective Equality (AIR), Juan Francisco Solichero, and the prosecutor and member of this group, Maria Isabel Díez.
This Association was born in January 2014 in order to promote equal treatment for mothers and fathers in marital breakdown and make the award of joint custody of the children is the most common choice.
Among the various actions taken by this Association it is to transfer the municipal political groups with proposals to facilitate, from local competence, compliance with court rulings that establish the shared custody of the child between the two spouses.
Citizens from Cartagena we have collected some of these proposals, which are currently being studied to assess their suitability and decide the best way to elevate the government team in the city of Cartagena.
This Municipal Citizens Group wishes to recall that, since its founding, has advocated joint custody as a rule in case of separation, and no exception as occurs in this region.
Citizens argues that national legislation of regulating the current situation of inequality suffered by separated parents is approved.
From the Parliamentary Group of Citizens, after recently meeting with various groups advocating joint custody, he pledged to support the Popular Legislative Initiative (ILP) for the legal regulation on a future Parental Responsibility Act and Family Relations.
This initiative has been accepted for consideration in the Congress of Deputies and within days will begin collecting signatures for processing, in which citizens will work.
In addition, regional deputies of Citizens boost legislative initiative by the Regional Assembly issued in 2013 the Government of the country (where a bill ratio of children with parents in cases of breakdown of family life was attached ).
The spokesman for Citizens Cartagena, Manuel Padin, believes that a legislative drive that involves a change in legal practice, "are 30 years giving sole custody in this region, which is the one with the lowest rate regime concessions shared ".
According Padin, "there are things that can be done from the municipal administration, and ensure compliance with judgments of the few joint custody dictate the judges, and we are working to make them happen very soon."
"Today many parents feel helpless after the opinion of a judge and that we should not pamper" said Citizens spokesman Cartagena.
Only 10 percent of the wards are shared in the Autonomous Community of Murcia, (included in this figure cases of mutual agreement so that it is estimated that the process ending in custody does not even reach 5 percent).
Communities with their own legislation in this area (Region of Murcia does not) like Catalonia and Valencia have more than 35 and 31 percent respectively of shared custody, and the national average is 21.3 percent, regional data twice.
