Conflict between Compromís and PSPV for the presence of hunters on the animalist table
During the Ordinary Plenary held tonight, Compromís presented the motion that announced a few days ago on the creation of an Animal Welfare Board.
The purpose of the proposed table, explicit in its name, is to create a point of debate in relation to the policies and ordinances that affect the protection of animals, as Eva Ronda has declared. The mayor of the Valencian formation affirms that it is an issue with which the population is very aware, as it was demonstrated after the controversy in summer by the tender of the collection of animals.
Although the PSPV has been willing, and this has been confirmed with the unanimous approval of the motion by all groups, it has made them ugly that they use the issue for political purposes, as Javier Scotto has snapped. "It seems that you have found a reef to talk about", replied the Socialist councilor. To this, Ronda has responded that "They are not taking advantage of any pull, since Compromís has always been committed to the issue".
It has been approved, as we said, when the Government saw an opportunity in the project, and, in addition, they have offered Compromís to direct the said table.
Disagreement with the presence of hunters
However, there has been a controversial point in the project that has caused discrepancies between the two formations and which they have opposed from the Local Government. The conflicting part is about the actors that Compromís proposed that were at the table. Exactly, the formation called for the presence of the hunter society, to which Scotto has replied that he does not understand why said society should be at a table on the protection of animals.
The debate has been joined by the mayor, Vicent Grimalt, who, after announcing that Compromís will set up the table, has declared, in his personal capacity, his contradiction to the participation of hunters.
