We warned the Mayor that this problem had not expected and had to act immediately. Many families in our municipality hoped to get something positive from the terrible catastrophe suffered in last May. remained a city to rebuild and envisioned a hopeful source of employment. been nearly a year, there are plenty of Lorca works in progress and, inexplicably , continues to raise the number of unemployment in the construction sector. "
The mayor Lorca has stressed that "the Mayor, after presenting the proposal, assured us he was going to study and agreed, within a week, to convene a Special Commission to study the same. Time has passed and no we know nothing. The project has been forgotten. For the PSOE, unemployment is one of the priority issues and Mr. Jodar not seem to share this concern. "

Believe to be put on the table measures to address the negative inertia of unemployment in the municipality and must take action in this matter immediately. seems clear that if in Lorca are undertaking a huge number of works and also are to rebuild educational facilities and other public services, such use should be a priority to Lorca, who were those who suffered in their flesh the drama of earthquakes. hope to hear of initiatives that are geared to that effect, but not great confidence in our Mayor. "

We will continue denouncing this alarming situation as they persist in doing nothing in this matter. Understand that unemployment figures continue to grow in other municipalities but it seems clear that in Lorca, a city rebuilt, denied must be very, very capable and very competent to increase the number of unemployed in the construction sector where we do not stop to contemplate the scaffolds landscape of our town. There should be work for everyone, however, more and more unemployed construction professionals. "
