From the municipal group Podemos, we have been supervising, to the extent that we can and allow us, the measures that, in a more or less correct way, the municipal government team is taking during the covid crisis19. Putting life at the center and investing in public policies for the social majority, goes through details such as guaranteeing easy access to information through a toll-free number for vulnerable people. The Murcia City Council announced the "unification of all municipal public information on the free line 010 to serve the most vulnerable", but if we enter the City Council's website and do a little research on this phone, the reality is different, and is that it is not free. The need to look at every detail of the gear of the Social Services structure of the municipality of Murcia is a priority for us as an opposition, and the need to provide a free phone is crucial in the scenario that there are people in situations of extreme exclusion towards which we must lead all the proposals and facilities for access to a decent life. From the municipal group Podemos, we have many proposals that we take to the places where we are called, in addition to communicating directly with the councilmen and councilors of the government team, but "we consider that there are budgets that we have not seen and scenarios that have not been raised, especially in the social sphere, hence our capacity for transformation is limited by the lack of information, "declares Clara Martínez Baeza. "We have reports that we cannot specifically assess, Social Support Plans without a budget or schedule, and unanswered questions from the Department of Social Services, to which since the beginning of this crisis we have proposed measures, despite the difficult access to municipal information, "says the spokesman for the municipal group Podemos. "On a daily basis we hold conversations with third sector entities, groups, associations, with civil society in general, from which we collect needs, proposals and vision to transfer it to the government team in the form of concrete proposals and we assume that the leading role in management the government team must have the crisis, but we consider that many people are being left behind and the news continues to be prioritized over concrete social action, "concludes Ginés Ruiz. We have managed to include the free telephone number 010 as a measure in the Social Support Plan that we are preparing the municipal groups in collaboration with the Department of Social Services, and we also present it as a motion in plenary on Thursday, April 30, to be effective as soon as possible, in the event that the document is delayed until everything is agreed. "When it is governed for all citizens, we must take into account all possible scenarios, such as a person having no balance on their phone to make a call to request a volunteer, access help or notify of an emergency.
If you do not have balance , you do not have access, and that must change now, "declares Clara Martínez Baeza.
