When assessing the development of the ordinary Plenary January, Councilman José Eduardo IU-Greens Illueca lamented the refusal of the government team of the two initiatives presented by his group, "both with a clear social content and from our point of view, absolutely necessary in a situation like this where unemployment, poverty and despair are the daily life context ciezanos that many have not heard yet how well that is going to Spain, according to some. "
To this council, "is difficult to understand the rejection of initiatives such as those proposed, considering they are measures which have been working other administrations, both regional and local, often under popular governments, is also very unfortunate, as we continue to lose opportunities that citizens begin to perceive that the City Council focused their political action to mitigate social unrest and worse in helping to pass it, but it is clear that this government team are other priorities. "
Alluding to the Public Land Bank, Illueca recalled "that the municipalities of Molina de Segura and Mula have approved similar initiatives, and Cieza objective circumstances for at least exist, I have placed ourselves have agreed to explore this interesting pathway performance, with structural unemployment close to 30 100, with a skilled and knowledgeable tillage agricultural population, and, after the bursting of the housing bubble, with large tracts of land classified as developable but whose only real possibility is the farm, unforgivable that even reject outright the study of this possibility. "
As to the second of the initiatives proposed by IU-Greens this time, "is incomprehensible even, if possible, the refusal of the government team to implement a dedicated help line to alleviate energy poverty, a phenomenon that affects our town to a large number of households, especially with regard to the payment of electricity, and extremely negative impact on the dignity of persons. "
Explains this council, "the current budget provides, in addition to heading for the distribution of food and other aid 'in kind', an allocation of € 20,000 for direct financial aid, but it is set to generic, so her many needs and very different types of basic family expenses (rent, electricity, transportation, etc.). served ".
From IU-Greens understand "that is completely inadequate, as evidenced by the same councilor welfare recognize that humanitarian organizations are often those that take care of the energy costs of these families, estimates that there must, without prejudice to the already exist, another specific game situations to alleviate the growing of 'energy poverty', and that its resources should be placed at least 30,000 to 50,000 euros. "
According Illueca, "is painful to know is stingy in social assists while shooting 'Powder King' in other expenses, without going any further, it has been confirmed to us in this House that is likely to 1,200,000 euros will end up paying the company reserves the Capitol as overrun by the work while ciezanas many families lack the basics, even hot water for showers or winter heating water from IU-Greens we were willing to give many of the items referred to in the proposal, but the budget for 2014, specific and sufficient, was indispensable; equipment Popular Party government has made a profound mistake to reject it.
