In the last plenary ordinary town of Los Alcazares, PSOE Socialist Youth and the Consistory got to commit to helping local students who can not cope this year to pay college tuition.
The Socialist Municipal Group presented for discussion and approval a motion urging the government team to create a municipal fund to govern the financial support necessary for any college or university in the municipality to be expelled from the university for failing to assume the payment of tuition if it had been denied the scholarship application for next year.
All political groups represented in the plenary voted for, except for the current government, the Popular Party, as has become usual.
During the defense of the Motion, Councillor and Secretary General of Socialist Youth of Los Alcazares, Mario Perez Cervera, accused the PP of "we're going to make leaps and bounds to a past situation we thought forgotten, a situation of reverse fenorme where the right to education is not only determined by the ability of the students, but the purchasing power. "
In addition, the Municipal Socialist Group spokesman and secretary general of the PSOE in Los Alcazares, Joaquín Menárguez, said during the debate that "we will not allow any alcazareño / to leave or be expelled from college for not being able to meet the payment of enrollment "after booting ended commitment of the Mayor and the Councillor for Education that if a case is detected, our City would assume the payment of these fees.
"From Socialist Youth Los Alcazares think this is necessary after the continuous cuts suffered, both from our region, and by the Ministry of Education. Along the cut suffered during the past year where the Ministry slashed a total of 110 million euros in the game for scholarships, affecting some 35,000 students across Spain, we add the increase in tuition fees in our region, 2.1%, more sustained rise during the previous year, "said Mario Perez .
"To JSLA, is inadmissible attack is being done by the Popular Party government against public education, cutting essential items such as scholarships at a time of economic crisis, just when most needed aid, since the purchasing Spanish families has dropped significantly. Given this, we can not remain with arms crossed while many young people are left without a future, "he concluded.
