Water Councilman City of Lorca, Melchor Morales, condemned the rise of the water current set by the Commonwealth Taibilla Channel, a body under the Government of the Nation.

As pointed out by Morales, the Commonwealth has adopted a percentage increase of 7'86% in the current water bill, ignoring the municipalities that make up the Governing Body of this body, who voted against this increase.

Thus, Councilman Lorca has said that "at the meeting of the Governing Council of the Commonwealth Taibilla Channel on December 21, was voted this rise.

Of the 64 municipalities at the meeting, 73%, 47 municipalities among which was that of Lorca, voted no to this rise as 15, except Benferri PSOE also opposed, voted in favor of it .

However, the Commonwealth ignored the tenets of the municipalities, and decreed a rise that will affect the pockets of all Lorca in a very difficult time, which is determined by the erroneous commitment to desalination. "

In this sense, Morales has detailed what will this increase of 7'86%, which will affect the six blocks of current water billing.

Thus, "in block 1, the consumption of less than 14 cubic meters, the increase shall be EUR 0'66 bimonthly, for block 2, the consumption of less than 28 cubic meters, the increase was set at 2 ' 02 euros, and those who consume up to 49 cubic meters, Block 3, will pay each month 4'53 euros, an increase for Block 4, consumption of up to 100 cubic meters, will 14'46 euros euros will rise 149'65 for those who consume up to 1,000 cubic meters, block 5, while, finally, those who consume more than 1,000 cubic meters will suffer an increase in euros 229'52 bill. "

Thus, the price of receipt will be set at the following numbers, according to Morales, "who consume 14 cubic meters will pay EUR 42'54 bimonthly, who consume 28 cubic meters will pay 76'46, a consumption of 49 cubic meters will be a bill of 137'67 EUR 100 cubic meters will cost 372'66; 1,000 cubic meters will involve 3,619 '50 and consumption of 1,500 cubic meters will be a receipt of 5,530 '43. "

It is, as Councilman of Water "for a rise it will directly undermine the pockets of Lorca and Murcia, and that comes at the worst possible time, as citizens are faring badly with the crisis, and from the National Government rather than help, just put more obstacles to economic recovery, bleeding the resources of all citizens with an increase in running water like this, which affects individuals and businesses, and you will do harder to make ends meet.

Similarly, this increase will make small and medium enterprises in the municipality are more difficult to keep. "

Morales concluded by noting that "these are the recipes of the Prime Minister for economic recovery."
