Citizens managed to include a plan to boost local commerce in the Strategic Plan for Employment in Cartagena (31/07/2018)

- The orange formation regrets the rejection of its proposal to create a new strategic line "to promote an economic sector of great potential in Cartagena as is the blue economy", said the spokesman of Cs Cartagena, Manuel Padin, who blames this refusal " to the impossibility of structurally modifying the document, a direct consequence of not allowing our collaboration until the last moment "

- Cs regrets that PP, MC and Podemos have not wanted to directly contribute a single idea to the Strategic Employment Plan

On June 1, the Government of Cartagena presented the Strategic Employment Plan for Cartagena.

The document was then submitted to the consideration of the municipal groups and the groups that have contributed to its design, so that they could contribute their suggestions to the plan, so that it may be operational in September.

Today the final Plan has been presented and signed with the allegations and suggestions accepted in the Council Chamber of the Consistorial Palace.

The Municipal Citizens Group submitted, within the agreed deadline, a battery of initiatives to be included in the final document.

Orange training has managed to include in the strategic line 5 'Dynamize trade', the development of a plan to boost local trade.

According to the spokesman of Citizens in Cartagena, Manuel Padín, "in the draft there was no mention of the need to write a plan of this type so we decided to incorporate it with some suggestions such as establishing in advance the budget necessary to develop the actions that are undertaken: strategic improvements of the urban space, the adaptation of equipment to make the reception of the client more attractive, the promotion and loyalty through campaigns, competitions and raffles (among them, the orange proposal, Week of Small Commerce) , and a support system for small entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs with measures of administrative simplification, tax incentives and digital training applied to trade ".

"The purpose of this plan promoted by the orange training should be in the medium term (2-4 years), the improvement of competitiveness, generate an attractive commercial collective image and promote the increase of customers to small shops in Cartagena", explained Padin who has reported that "the mayor has denied that the 120,000 euros reserved in the budget by MC with the support of Cs and PSOE for this plan will be allocated to grants as today has published a means of communication."

The rest of the orange training proposals have been considered "already included" in the Strategic Plan.

They are those that make reference to digital training and STEAM, to the impulse of the Observatory of Employment of the ADLE, to the return of talent to Cartagena, to the incentive of creation of a start up ecosystem that promotes a space of interconnection between companies and associations with a base technology for their cooperation and collaboration, and the employment activation plan aimed at the long-term unemployed, and those in rural areas and at risk of exclusion.

Finally, Citizens regretted that PP, MC and CTSSP-Podemos have not wanted to incorporate any suggestion, "it is disheartening that these parties have disregarded a Strategic Plan that will inspire in the next years our way to generate jobs and boost our productive fabric, instead of working on this have chosen to cross their arms and feed artificial controversies with an eye on the election year of 2019, Citizens do not understand the political opposition well, due control and control always add a constructive work and of colaboration".

The new strategic blue economy line will not be included

On the other hand, Citizens regrets that their proposal to incorporate a new strategic line to promote an economic sector of great potential in Cartagena such as the blue economy has been rejected.

"The official justification, given to us in the Plenary, was that this sector was already contemplated in two lines, which refers to aquaculture, and another on the nautical and fishing sector, but that is a reductionist and mistaken vision of our proposal, which includes other sectors such as renewable energy, gastronomy, tourism, blue biotechnology, among many others, our concept is precisely the expansive interrelation of these sectors linked to the sea as a driver of innovation and economy.

The spokesperson for Cs suspects that "the real reason is that including this concept now would require reconfiguring a very high percentage of the Strategic Employment Plan since two strategic lines would have to be reoriented by including them in a new call Blue Economy or Blue Growth, where they should include many other linked sectors "" This is what happens because we do not allow ourselves to participate in the preparation of the plan from the first minute, they have only given us one month after the presentation of the final draft, so all those contributions that imply a structural and conceptual not find now fit, "lamented Manuel Padin who hopes that in the future can restructure the plan to assume this new strategic line," which is perfectly complemented by the plenary agreement that we managed to bring forward at the last ordinary plenary to promote the creation of a park of companies in the Port linked to the blue economy, if we do not have

an integrating vision of these sectors linked to the sea, we are not going to be the reference that we want Cartagena to be ".

Cs will not be satisfied with this rejection and recalled that in the last ordinary plenary session he managed to take forward an agreement to promote a park or pole of companies related to the blue economy in the Port of Cartagena, (a measure that was intended to complement the new strategic line).

Despite everything, the orange training has announced that it is preparing a proposal for a specific plan linked to this economy, "is another way to include this economic vision in future modifications of the employment plan, we are convinced, will strengthen our motor economic and our ability to generate wealth and employment ", concludes Padín.
