Galmés activates an 84 million plan against the impact of the war, while Cladera questions the use of remaining funds
The president of the Consell de Mallorca, Llorenç Galmés, has announced the Mallorca Protects Plan to address the economic and social impact of the war conflict in the Middle East
PalmThe president of the Consell de Mallorca, Llorenç Galmés, has announced the Plan Mallorca protects, endowed with 84 million euros, to face the economic and social impact of the war conflict in the Middle East, because "the insular institution acts with responsibility, diligence and speed to protect the families, businesses and productive sector of Mallorca".
For her part, the spokesperson for the PSIB, Catalina Cladera, has criticized the dates of the debate, eight months after the previous one, and has insinuated that it could be because Galmés, "was in a hurry" to announce the measures to alleviate the effects of the war in Iran and the Middle East. Furthermore, Cladera has criticized that the remaining funds available to the Consell are used to finance these anti-crisis measures.
On the other hand, the socialist has "missed" a condemnation by Galmés of a war, which she has described as "illegal" and "avoidable" with consequences for the civilian population.
Furthermore, MÉS per Mallorca has stated that Mallorca will suffer a "permanent collapse" if limits are not set and has reproached the president of the Consell de Mallorca, Llorenç Galmés, for his government "not wanting to bother anyone".
The spokesperson for the eco-sovereigntist party, Catalina Inés Perelló, addressed these words to the island leader, in the first turn of intervention in the general policy debate of 2026. In this way, she has accused Galmés of practicing "political fraud" and of leading a government based on "headlines, promises, and propaganda but without real results".
Among the measures, Llorenç Galmés has highlighted the nine million euros aimed at the most vulnerable families so they can cope with basic expenses in the face of rising prices. Also, two million for families with registered children under 16 years of age to offset sports expenses and one million euros for clubs and federations. Likewise, one million euros will be allocated to agricultural cooperatives to defend Mallorca's agricultural sector and two million euros in local product consumption vouchers. The cultural and artisan sector will also have 300,000 euros in aid.
In addition, the president of the Consell de Mallorca has indicated that up to 75% or 100% of subsidy advances will be anticipated to streamline administrative management. He also announced that public works contract awards will be reviewed to update prices and extend deadlines.
Llorenç Galmés has assured that the island institution maintains its commitment to public investment with 51.5 million euros to modernize and improve the sustainability of road infrastructure, and two million euros to renovate municipal sports facilities.
This package of measures, most of them immediate and complementary to those of the regional government and the Spanish government, will be approved at the next plenary session on April 9.
