Malaga, (EFE) and that guarantees the protection of the national park.
This Tuesday the commission to debate the bill to improve the irrigation management of the North Crown of Doñana has started in the Andalusian Parliament. In which experts and representatives of different administrations and entities will participate.
The president of the Junta, Juanma Moreno, hopes that this parliamentary commission will serve to solve a problem that has been “entrenched” for a long time. And that his government has “inherited” from the PSOE, according to what he said in Malaga, where he participated in the inauguration of the Digital Enterprise Show (DES) technological congress.
Proposition instead of decree
Moreno has stressed that the executive has decided to process the bill in Parliament, instead of doing it by decree. “So that everyone, from environmental associations, specialists, professionals and leaders of other formations, can express there what their vision is and provide solutions”.
He has affirmed that the Board is “willing for the bill to be modified through different amendments.” For which he hopes that his detractors “bring a credible and viable alternative to solve the problem of dozens of families who are trapped in a situation of legality, without undermining the interests of the park.”
“Precisely what this law guarantees is that water is never taken from the subsoil. This is a guarantee law and to preserve the Doñana Park ”, he pointed out.
Positive contributions
Moreno expects those appearing in Parliament to make “positive contributions.” To modify the irrigation systems of Doñana so that they do not use this controversy as has been done in the elections. “We as a government are always willing to talk, to listen. To learn from those who can make us a more intelligent or positive proposal than what we do ”, he stressed.
The PP and Vox bill proposes expanding the irrigable agricultural areas in the Condado de Huelva region by some 800 hectares. Whose owners were left out of the 2014 regulation, and which affects the municipalities of Almonte, Bonares, Lucena del Puerto, Moguer and Rociana del Condado.
The PP argues that these crops will be irrigated with surface water from the transfer of the Tinto, Odiel and Piedras rivers. Not with water from the Doñana aquifer, but the initiative has provoked the rejection of the central government, the European Commission, experts and ecologists. They fear that it will end up affecting the Doñana park. EFE
