NOW MURCIA points out that the new data known about the exponential increase in evictions in the Region "come to corroborate what from this formation we never tire of repeating: that the Autonomous Community and the municipality can not continue without social housing policy".

Councilman Miguel Angel Alzamora states that "we are facing one of the biggest problems for a large part of the citizenship, and despite this the PP continues year after year putting on profile with this issue, in an act of cowardice and serious irresponsibility "

The mayor highlights the lack of a "Municipal Housing Plan, which the Government of Ballesta refuses to develop, although the need for it is evident, with a bubble of rents and with more and more families evicted in the Region, specifically 31.6% more in the second quarter of this year compared to that period of 2017. "

Alzamora notes that "although Citizens repeated the last weeks that thanks to them has increased the municipal budget for housing, the reality is that for municipal rent aid Ballesta continues to use Contingency Funds, when it is a departure that it has to be used for situations of unexpected social emergency and not for structural issues, perfectly planned and that are repeated every year in the absence of a real policy on housing ".

Regarding the regional government, the councilor of Murcia now criticizes that President Lopez Miras "is announcing a housing plan and hype, however, is primarily focused on promoting and subsidizing construction companies, which will also mean an increase of the rental prices, this new rise would lead to really impossible rents for a large part of the citizens. "

The mayor stresses that, while López Miras talks about housing, the Regional Housing Law 10/2016 is still not applied "despite the continuous demands by social groups and our training that it be applied as soon as possible, because it includes measures that could help solve the problems of evictions and thus reduce the impact they are having on the health of families.
