The Monitoring Commission for the concession of health in the Marina Alta, created after the meeting of the Xarxa d'Alcaldes held on January 14, has agreed to demand that the Minister of Health, Carmen Montón, change the management team of Marina Salud for considering "They are not ensuring quality health in the Marina Alta."
This has been announced by the spokeswoman of the commission, the socialist councilor Cristina Morera, Who explained that for this they will request a meeting with the Consellera in order to explain first hand the most important claims of the region.

Likewise, from the Monitoring Committee, it is essential that the Ministry requires the company to comply with the Investment Plan adapted to current needs, which would include the construction of several health centers such as Denia, Pedreguer or Calpe.
