Castile and Leon | President of the Junta de Castilla y León
The president of the Junta de Castilla y León, Alfonso Fernández Mañueco, and the vice president, spokesperson and counselor for Transparency, Land Management and Foreign Action, Francisco Igea, have today taken stock of the two years of legislature with broad compliance with the planned objectives, focused on the modernization of the Community, the commitment to digitization and innovation, sustainability, rural development, the quality of public services, transparency and regeneration. Specifically, more than 88% of the commitments of the investiture speech of the Chairman of the Board and of the appearances of the directors have been fulfilled or are in the process of being fulfilled.
Without forgetting that the global pandemic has forced for months to focus on the protection of life and health of people and to maintain economic activity as much as possible, both have agreed that the regional government continues to have a future project for Castilla y León from stability and betting on dialogue with everyone.
Fernández Mañueco has highlighted that in these two years the Junta de Castilla y León has carried out an effective management, with the processing of more than 2,400 initiatives in the Governing Council, for more than 5,150 million euros. Thus, he has highlighted the effort made to put innovation and technology at the service of all, in education, in health, in social services, in the countryside, in companies and in industry; in a training focused on fostering the talent required by the new times and with more housing, conciliation, joint responsibility and transportation facilities; with equality policies and implementing new services for the elderly and the most vulnerable, with humanity and closeness.
Regarding the remainder of the legislature, the president stressed that new initiatives will be promoted to fight depopulation, among which are favorable fiscal measures for the rural environment and the increase in the promotion of housing for young people in the towns. Likewise, it has advanced that the Junta de Castilla y León will take steps to advance in free education from 0 to 3 years, with the aim of starting with those of 2 years from the 2022-2023 academic year.
Other bets will be the implementation this year of the professional career for public employees. And in the social sphere, the implementation of a Plan to combat Loneliness, with support from advanced telecare.
During his speech, the president also insisted on the need for European funds for economic recovery to be distributed fairly, based on a multilateral agreement, not bilateral agreements. “I ask Sánchez to invite us to all the autonomous communities to attend his bilateral meetings. We want to know what is being negotiated with the future of all, with the money of the Spanish for the recovery ”.
