The VOX Municipal Groups Benalmádena, Torremolinos and El Rincón de la Victoria (Málaga) want to show their absolute willingness to participate in all meetings that aim to overcome the current Coronavirus crisis and mitigate its future consequences in the three municipalities. However, the three groups will only take part in these meetings as long as they are public and citizens are aware of the measures proposed by each of the political parties. Therefore, they demand that they be carried out following all legal channels.
From VOX Benalmádena, the spokeswoman and councilor, Gema Carrillo, on May 6, sent a letter to the mayor of the municipality in which he showed his total willingness to attend all the meetings held to "work for and for Benalmádena and its neighbors, making use as public representatives of the law that assists us to know the data and the analysis of the situation and evolution of the pandemic and its economic and social consequences in our municipality, not only in the context of the health crisis that concerns us, but in all the situations that may occur. "
This work, explains the councilor, will result in "motions, requests and questions to the government team, so that they are publicly and sovereignly exposed, debated and democratically voted in the corresponding plenary sessions." For this reason, explains Carrillo, the GM VOX Benalmádena "will not sign pacts that imply decisions of dispatch behind closed doors violating the principle of transparency of the Public Administration".
For his part, Antonio Sevilla, councilor of VOX Torremolinos, rejects the proposal of the government team to deal with such important matters in the Information Commissions and not in a monographic plenary session. The councilman denounces that the space to transfer the proposals is the Plenary.
As Seville explains, "from VOX we want to work facing the people of Torremolinos". Therefore, "with the greatest spirit of collaboration with other political forces and with the priority of getting Torremolinos out of the crisis, we will participate in the Informative Commissions on Coronavirus issues, but our contributions and proposals from VOX will be, as always, directed to the Plenary Session so that the people of Torremolinos know them ”.
José Rodríguez, VOX councilor in El Rincón de la Victoria, explains that the Municipal Government team agreed to carry out work committees where they agreed on a document to take actions to deal with the crisis. The result of these commissions has been a document that seems more "brochure than an administrative file". And is that Rodríguez demands "concrete measures", while this document only shows "ambiguities".
In this sense, the councilor draws attention to some points of the document, which, in his opinion, do not respond to the needs to overcome the Coronavirus crisis, such as the lack of specific measures that generate confidence in businessmen, neighbors and potential visitors.
