The PP will force a pulse between the two partners of the central government (PSOE and Podemos) so that they position themselves in the Imserso crisis in Benidorm after announcing the Minister of Social Rights Ione Belarra that she is going to freeze prices. The hoteliers demanded her resignation and have even announced a boycott by stopping offering this tourism program for the elderly, when this destination represents 20% of the total number of places.
“What is the role and influence of your fellow member of the Council of Ministers, the minister and head of state tourism policy, Reyes Maroto, in this matter? Does it express its conformity with the roadmap of Minister Belarra? », It is one of the popular parliamentary questions.
Belarra stated verbatim that “this activity will be recovered solidly, safely and without modifying the prices paid by older people, who will not have a penny rise in their trips”, as popular deputies Isabel Borrego, Agustín Almodóbar have recalled and Alicia García in this letter addressed to the Government.
After emphasizing that the hotel operators have reacted by lamenting that it “leads them to ruin”, they formulate two other questions to the Executive of Pedro Sánchez.
The first is whether “does Mmnistra Belarra, responsible for the design and execution of the Imserso Programs, confirm her intention not to proceed with updating the conditions required of our hotel businessmen after the impact of a long-lasting pandemic with millionaire losses for our operators?”
They also ask her if «is it minimally reasonable for Minister Belarra to freeze prices when Spain is one of the countries in the European Union with the highest levels of persistent inflation, a significant increase in raw materials and energy costs and taking into account in definitively, than throughout the last one».
