The Municipal Socialist Group spokesman, Manuel Soler, has begun his appearance before the media explaining that "the 1650 million plan Lorca, were left on a loan by the Official Credit Institute to the Autonomous Region for this pay what owed to the victims of the earthquake, as well as an extension for 2012 of the tax exemptions provided by the previous government. "
Soler continued saying that "the Royal Decree-Law 11/2012 of 30 March action to expedite the payment of aid to earthquake victims, rebuild demolished homes and boost economic activity we consider it insufficient and Lorca restrictive. really only provides a loan that the Official Credit Institute will sign with the Autonomous Region for it to pay what he owes to Lorca, making it clear that in the course of 2012 there will be no giving Lorca Plan within nine months for the Autonomous Community, the City of Lorca and the Commissioner of Central Government to develop an action plan to promote the recovery of economic and social activity in the area of ​​Lorca. It seems too coincidental that this period of time is just the his remaining months this year. This means that in the general budget of the government of Spain for this year, it will include the items necessary for the economic revitalization of our town. In 2013, budgets have been almost two years since befell earthquakes. "
The Socialist leader stressed that "is an eloquent gesture that the present Government is asked to prepare a new plan. This means that rejects Lorca Plan, as trumpeted by those responsible for Regional Administration and Local and 1.65 billion was quantified in euros. "
Lorca The mayor stressed that "in this Royal Decree provides for the existence of administrative difficulties that prevent aid from reaching their recipients. In Chapter III, Article 5.5. Says:" Official Credit Institute will conclude with the Autonomous Community Murcia a bilateral loan, for a maximum of 115 million euros, expandable if necessary and the agreement of the Government Commission for Economic Affairs, to meet the payment of aid for funding, partly corresponding to this " . It is abundantly clear that the difficulties are not administrative in nature, the reality is that the Government of Murcia not appropriated in the budget of 2012 the game needed to meet its share of aid, as agreed with the previous socialist government through the signing of an agreement. "
Manuel Soler has stated that "the present Government of Spain, despite repeated proposals Jódar Francisco Valcarcel and aimed to consider the disaster a matter of national responsibility, makes a loan to the CARM ICO to pay what he owes to victims of the earthquake, which is returned by it together with interest by deductions to be made by the Central Government resources that apply to the Regional Administration. In short, the Government of Murcia will have to pay 50% which corresponds and, finally, aid may charge the victims, under the Royal Decrees 6/2011 and 17/2011 which were published by the former Government of Spain. From the PSOE we wonder what will happen to the money the Autonomous Community has held to date and when you think about entering. "
Miras Soler said that "from the Municipal Socialist Group, we consider positive the extension referred to in the Royal Decree in 2012 of tax benefits established by Royal Decree Law 6/2011 on the Property Tax and Business Tax Economics. It should be noted that in cases of deferred tax liabilities, Corporation Tax and Income Tax of Individuals, whether such postponement is requested, it will be returned within twelve months with interest. Other very positive development is that the aid will arrive directly to the victims without going through the regional coffers and it seems a significant fact because it confirms that the National Government does not trust Valcárcel. "
"In relation to the 3 million that the mayor re-sold as Aid for Trade of the new Government of Spain, we must stress that was the previous National Government by whom agreed, providing 1.5 million for 2011 and 1 , 5 million for fiscal 2012. have sold many times this amount of money and have not paid yet. What you have is to pay it now and let the propaganda ", has completed Soler.
