Inma Nieto (Por Andalucia’s candidate for the Presidency at the Board), highlighted Tuesday the importance of social dialogue in order to plan the arrival European recovery funds to the community. He also promised that if the election is won on 19J, more control will be given to public contracts signed with the regional government. He stated that the goal is to ensure they deliver the services agreed upon and to “correct” the events of the previous legislature in which Juanma Moreno (PP-A reelection candidate) gave a “license for theft” to board.
Nieto has placed the emphasis on the economic plane during declarations to journalists in Seville. He has met with Javier Gonzalez de Lara (CEA), the president of Confederation of Entrepreneurs of Andalusia, and representatives of Uatae, the Union of Associations of Self-Employed Workers and Entrepreneurs. Both meetings were reviewed by the candidate, who highlighted the “unfair competition” that small- and medium-sized self-employed face with large multinationals. This is also what the Board “baited”.
He said, “We have spoken again over the Public Procurement Law, and about the need for control over what companies do when they get public contracts. Because Moreno Bonilla gave a license to steal, steal from the Andalusian Government.”
Nieto argued that this is because “the Andalusian people” have been paying via the Board for services that were not provided. He added that they have been left behind in the hands of cooperatives and small-scale self-employed who could have provided the service, and then have been overtaken by companies that don’t put on the waist. The government of Por Andalucia has reaffirmed, “of course it must correct it and it will.”
He promised that if a government is formed after Sunday’s election, he would mobilize all the power he had “to reverse this situation.” Nieto also stated that he wanted “to send the message” that “social dialogue is very important” after Monday’s debate among the six Presidency candidates. He said, “Neither can it not be abhorred as was done in yesterday’s debate” and that social and business dialog cannot be used as a cover to show off and then not deepen agreements that can been reached. We are here to make important decisions, and a lot money will be coming in, so we need to act now.
