The Deputy Speaker Municipal Socialist Group, Marisol Sanchez, began his appearance by showing that "past more than two years since the tragic earthquake that devastated our city, today social reality shows about 5,000 people out of their residence, 1,500 homes to rebuild, grants that come with dropper or fall, social injustices such as public funding no demolitions of buildings classified as technical or economic ruin, about a dozen dependent infrastructure Regional Management pending rebuild , the snip Lorca Plan, unemployment continues to grow because of the lack of economic activity and now the flood has been greatly damaged the primary sector (agriculture) ".
Social responsibility has detailed that "with respect to the Joint Committee has resolved 14,009 cases amounting to EUR 53,275,320, of which 13,745 are 264 housing and trade. Among them, has paid about half, 28 million euros . concerned, greatly, 3 aspects: Payment of aid, mainly rentals (7.5 million euros), records that are still unresolved, about 3,000 and, finally, the high number of records that are are denied. From 14,009 cases resolved were granted 6,456 assists, which means that more than 50% have been denied. "
Lorca The mayor detailed that "in terms of aid for rent, hear in Lorca mayor's statements that there are up to 16" causísticas "blocking various aid charging; relapsing causes this lock on the victims and not possible negligence or administrative policies. The truth is that, after two years since the earthquake, of the nearly 1100 families with rental assistance for approved (there are many unresolved), NOBODY has claimed more than four months, and many of them have not received NOTHING.'re more than 7 million who are not coming to their rightful recipients, subjecting people to this waiting is something that borders on immorality. "
Jodar Sanchez stressed that "In the chapter on housing, currently economic ruin decrees issued by the City, require the forced demolition within two months, putting the affected before a Kafkaesque situation, because if demolished the building and the Consortium assumes no reconstruction, the owners can not rebuild because the indemnity offered by the Consortium does not, in most cases, or 20% of its actual cost. In practice, these decrees are worthless, as the Consortium does not recognize the need for reconstruction derived from them, refusing to pay, although coverage policies insured leaves room left to do ".
"In this helplessness, the only guidance that communities and owners receive the City Council or the Commissioner, is to go to the courts, which would collapse the courts of Lorca with a cascade of processes that take years to resolve, and meanwhile Lorca many families out of their homes would continue. The City Council and Regional and State Governments in this matter are leaving their fate to those affected. Such is the true reality beyond propaganda statements and reports. Regarding hackneyed Plan Lorca, Lorca + Plan now, we are facing a lack of official document. has no regulatory status, not a law, it is RD, the Authority is not obliged to comply, what gives us serious doubts. Y most disappointing, does not solve the human drama being experienced by thousands of families Lorca, "he added.

Which ceiling established as December 31 2013 for the resolution of all the records. Provide funding the demolition of buildings classified as technical or economic ruin. Which solves the difficulty of second homes, beneficial owners and assigns. Recognition of direct financial aid to the victims of floods. Segundo. - Urge the Government approved the National Plan + Lorca through the Council of Ministers or by the House of Representatives to have the force of law. Tercero. - Give transfer of these agreements the Government Central, Regional Government and Mrs. Commissioner ".
