Change has filed a motion in Parliament on Thursday that aims to make "profound reflection" on compliance with the non-denominational recognized in the Spanish Constitution by the city of Murcia, and how, based on this principle, to the institution more secular city.

The initiative, proposed following a request from the Europe lay association, does not raise in any case suppress or harm the Easter and other religious holidays, but open a social debate, respecting the freedom of belief and separation of the local administration the religious sphere.

Thus, the municipalist training considers both the mayor and members of the government team can attend individual confessional acts of any kind, but not as representatives of citizenship title since "there are religious Murcia and others who are not ".

In this sense, he believes that appropriate actions are not as mayor on Saturday to chair a children's procession.

Regarding the use of public land for manifestations of religious, Let's change means that "the street is everyone, whether associations, groups, political parties and, of course, the Catholic Church and the brotherhoods when they need it."

He adds that another issue is the transfer of public land to the UCAM or private schools or facilities are transferred without any consideration to the brotherhoods, as in the case of a part of the school of El Carmen to the Real, Very Illustrious Venerable Confraternity of the Most Ancient and Most Precious Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Another of the proposals contained in the motion is the payment of Property Tax (IBI) by the Church and other religious institutions, especially in these times of crisis, in which "it is necessary to contribute as we do other citizens ".

In general, says Ramos, "We want to improve the democratic quality of the City Council, and it is important to contribute to the debate on secularism and whether we want a town you know separate what is the Church, a private institution, the council, which It represents all of us. "
