The situation that the Ramón Gaya Museum, with its workers waiting for a response to their irregular situation and with the threat of a closure if solutions are not found, "is the result of the passivity of Councilman Pacheco and in general of the government of Ballesta" , Said socialist councilor Begoña García Retegui, who recalled that "both the museum director and the council have had months to give a solution and have slept on their laurels thinking that they could maintain the existing situation by extending a contract What is happening today with Ramón Gaya is the result of poor management of the PP government. "
As early as May, Garcia Retegui warned the Board about the situation of the museum workers and urged them to find solutions before the contract expired on January 31.
"It was evident that, after the Director of the Museum had assured himself that there could be an illegal assignment of workers, the legal services of the City Council would not accept the renewal of the contract. Facilitating alternatives and seeking solutions to try to keep these workers, at least temporarily, to find a definitive solution.
The mayor of the PSOE has ensured that, with a similar view, "it is not understood that until January there has been no report of legal services because they were not requested until December.It has not been diligent and has encouraged this situation.Now, Or the workers are subrogated as pointed out by the legal services of the City Council, or the museum is closed, as the Secretary of the Board of Trustees says that it is illegal to subrogate the workers. There is no other and much we fear that the Ramón Gaya is going to end Closing by the malpractice of the local government ".
"The discrepancies between the Secretariat of the Patronage and the legal services of the City Council keep us in this state of indecision that will end the closure of the museum unless the government of Ballesta seek solutions already. Is a legal solution, the workers will eventually go to court, where they will certainly give them the reason and we will end up with a closed museum and paying some employees for a job they have not done, "he concluded.
