PSOE: "The PP condemns extreme poverty by over a thousand of Lorca with the deletion of 400 euros Program Prepares" (08/08/2012)

The deputy spokesman of the Socialist Municipal Group has reported today that more than a thousand citizens in Lorca will be seriously affected by the extinction of the State program that provides a subsidy PREPARES 400 euros to long-term unemployed who have exhausted their unemployment benefits.

The socialist mayor explained that on 15 August, the program expires without the Popular Party government has indicated its intention to renew.

In fact, there is going to hold any Cabinet before that date so that, when not extended within the stipulated time, the program will be suspended.

The socialist leader was asked what is the sensitivity of a government that calls for 100,000 million euros for "financial commitments" and is not able to extend a program that will cost 200 million euros and whose denial "will condemn the extreme Spanish poverty to 600,000, 17,133 of them Murcia and Lorca over a thousand. "

Therefore, Marisol Sanchez has called "the union of the City Council to urge the Central Government not to remove Prepares Plan" as it is an obligation of government and the Government guarantee a minimum subsistence to the people.

The socialist mayor stressed that "while the unemployment rate dropped last July in Spain and in the Region of Murcia, in this month, has increased by more than 60 people in our city, this being a situation that in the municipality of Lorca has been repeating since last November, relentlessly "

Sanchez added that for those over 1100 Lorca and their families, renew the provision "represents the difference between eating or not eating every day," while announcing his group's request to the City of Lorca to devote a game than 350,000 € to help the unemployed to meet removal Prepares Plan, should last that Mr. Rajoy finally not extend this benefit to long-term unemployed.

The mayor explained that this measure would be possible, cuts salaries of politicians, eliminating the extra pay of civil servants, the 7% reduction in attendance at plenary sessions and commissions and 20% reduction in the allocations they receive political group represented in the Council.

According to the City Council, have saved 2.4 million euros with the measures approved and we believe it is possible to draw down 350,000 euros to help the unemployed, which is sorely lacking.

Finally, Sanchez gave as examples the firm announced by the Government of Castile and Leon will launch a similar benefit to offset the negative effects of eliminating Prepares Plan.

In other municipalities such as the PSOE Logroño has also asked the Municipal Government put in place mechanisms for the same purpose.
