"
"From a critical position to the Central Government, which announced the negotiation for the 2011 - Council Members Training Left" consider "the Autonomous Administration remains a parasite, to draw on state funds, the vast majority and filter the resources and expertise that should be managed directly and independently from local councils. "
"The recent decision of the President, Valcárcel, announcing a reduction of 14 million euros for investment in local councils and increased spending power, says much of the unwillingness and ability of the PP in Murcia, to address the underlying problem ..." said Councilman IU in Totana, Juan José Canovas.
They add that "IU, and municipal-eminently political formation, has always advocated the decentralization of resources to local corporations, which they have made since 1978, expertise and investment to improve the quality of life of citizens, at the cost of borrowing significantly and chapters to increase their running costs and staff to maintain services that are not directly within its competence. During this period, resources from the state have been reduced year after year. "
"Local funding can not wait and is much more urgent that the recent agreements for the financing of the Autonomous Communities, which in turn, have to channel resources to the municipalities ..." concludes Cánovas.
