Municipal deputy spokesman, Francisco Garcia, wanted to answer the accusations made by the Secretary General of the Socialist Group Lorca.
Garcia said it was "outrageous that those who refused to satiety Lorca Plan now want to turn their great defenders. The Socialist Party at local, regional and national denied a year ago Lorca Plan, coming to say they had their own plan to Lorca, that plan was never heard. "
Garcia has denied that a firm way is to reduce the budget of Lorca Plan and stressed that remains 1,650 million the total amount to invest for recovery of the city.
In fact, just look at the document filed in August 2011 and see what has already been spent, paid or committed approximately 1,000 million in direct costs of emergency or persons, vehicles, homes, businesses, public facilities and heritage , among others, and as part of indirect costs.
Garcia stressed that "once he has secured the financing of two-thirds of Lorca Plan, we are now working after the summer to ensure the implementation of new works and other employment plan, including the third part of Lorca Plan , which is the investment plan for economic recovery that we have now introduced three months getting ahead of the deadlines set by the last Royal Decree-Law. "
In this regard, he stressed that among the direct costs outlined in this plan and have already been paid were the emergency (including first aid, care of wounded and dead, rubble removal, personnel, material and services of the camp, ruins impending demolitions, ...) as well as damage to property have been paid by the Insurance Pool, although there is some small part to pay yet.
There are other direct costs that are being paid or running, such as repairing public infrastructure public aid (almost 200 municipal or Parish Road, for example) and aid for rent, housing rehabilitation and reconstruction, and are guaranteed the ICO credit financing granted to the region.
More than half of the damage to the historic heritage and are in the process of funding and the remainder are expected to benefit from new annuities from 1% Cultural and Regional Government loan to the European Investment Bank.
In addition, as compensation for indirect damage have launched numerous tax measures for individuals and companies as bonuses in the IBI in 2011 and 2012, besides the re-industrialization plans and revitalization of trade.
"Since the submission of the Plan has been running Lorca or seeking funding streams of each and every one of his games, and although it is true that there are items that were budgeted with figures well above those that are needed and other that have fallen short, our calculation is that the budget may vary in some 50 million euros, "added the mayor.
"Therefore, except for some small fringe, in which we are working as are some of the new demolition, direct damage have now secured funding and planning what we are lead times of about 400 million investment that will allow Lorca is positioned in place that would have been if no earthquakes have occurred, "said Garcia.
"This additional investment to revitalize that focus not on rehabilitation but in new construction remodeling of streets, construction of new facilities and employment generation," concluded Garcia.
