From the purple formation they have repeatedly criticized that neither the Autonomous Community nor the City Council have created a single square in this educational section since the Popular Party governs both institutions.
"Now, with the new Education Law, steps are being taken to try to achieve a real conciliation and that women stop being harmed at work by motherhood," said Councilor Clara Martínez Baeza.
Not a single place in 25 years.
That is the balance of the People's Party management, both at the regional and municipal level with regard to the public squares of the first section of Infantil.
On this matter, Podemos has focused since the beginning of the legislature, warning "of the serious damage that women have that there are no real conciliation policies." Councilor Clara Mart nez Baeza already took a motion to the Plenary in November 2019 in which, after several amendments and modifications, the corporation recognized "the need to increase the positions from 0 to 3 years, making a complete study with a vision of the future to know the real needs and addressing a strategy to expand the number of places ".
The motion had the unanimity of the Plenary but since then, and a year has passed "nothing more absolute ".
Mart nez Baeza has highlighted the "inaction and passivity" of the government team in this matter.
"They are not interested, they do not want to do it because it does not generate any kind of benefit.
For that reason, for 25 years, in the municipality of Murcia a new public kindergarten has not been opened nor has the number increased.
of places, which remains at 578 for a potential child user population of 23,000 minors ".
For all these reasons, from the Municipal Group Podemos in the Murcia City Council they celebrate that the so-called Cela Law contains, "for the first time, a state framework with minimum requirements on the conditions that the staff and the facilities of the schools must meet public and private children from 0 to 3 years old, as well as the launch of a plan to increase public places and reach a greater number of the population ".
For Podemos, it is of the utmost importance that this issue be addressed, "although it is regrettable that it has to come by the mandate of a state law and not by the political will of our regional and local governments" because "a policy p Public that maintains sufficient places in centers from zero to three is a policy that fights against gender inequality and this is demonstrated by the experience in northern Europe, since our care system is configured on the shoulders Women's".
In the opinion of Councilor Clara Martínez Baeza, the increase in public places in the first section of Infantile "will make it possible for mothers to access the labor market on equal terms." The mayor lamented that "our City Council is so irresponsible as not to have addressed this issue, insisting that it was their obligation because the Plenary ordered it and because it is the responsibility and commitment of public administrations to the extent in which the constitution, laws and common sense itself must lead us to understand that we cannot continue to nurture gender roles and stereotypes.
And we can avoid it with political decision and investment Now the government of Spain shows us the way to do so.
