The provincial executive of the PSPV has agreed this Sunday that the socialist group gives support, with a favorable vote, to the budgets of the Diputació de València for the year 2025 “if they are redirected to the reconstruction of the areas affected by DANA.”
The provincial-socialist secretary, Carlos Fernández Bielsa, has also stated that both the 2025 budget and the following ones “must have as a common element special attention to the needs of the localities affected by Dana in five Valencian regions.”
Bielsa has stated that “the budget cannot depend on the Vox deniers, who must be rendered irrelevant,” and that the Provincial Council has to provide all the budgetary, technical and human capital resources necessary to rebuild the damage.
The socialist leader states that the 2025 and subsequent budgets must also prioritize strategic actions to avoid or mitigate future episodes of extreme phenomena marked by climate change. Thus, he points out that the provincial accounts “must be aimed at the restitution of destroyed or damaged infrastructure, facilities and services and to enable lines of aid and subsidies for the economic sectors, SMEs, the self-employed and individuals.”
Working group with experts and affected town councils
The spokesperson in the deputation has also announced to the executive that the socialist group will raise the need to create a working group made up of experts, scientists, civil servants and technicians, university departments and professional associations, as well as a representation of the municipalities at risk, to obtain accurate guidance in making strategic decisions.
It proposes that this working group “also allows the Generalitat to propose the regulatory and operational changes necessary to improve and evolve policies regarding response to emergencies.”
During the executive, Bielsa expressed words of admiration, support and solidarity with the mayors, councilors of the affected towns as well as neighbors, volunteers and the State structures that have contributed as much as possible to the aid. He has also conveyed condolences to the families of the deceased and empathy with the anguish of those who are still awaiting news about the missing people.
