The Governing Council approved this Friday the appointment of Maria Joaquina Ferrer as Director General of Coasts and the Coastline, at the proposal of the Regional Ministry of the Sea and the Water Cycle. A civil servant for the Autonomous Community since 1996, Ferrer has extensive experience in the public sector, with more than 25 years of experience in administrative, legal, and management roles.

While the legalization of irregular housing on rural land is moving forward thanks to the Simplification Law, the other amnesty promise made by the People's Party (PP) during the election campaign—constructions on the coast—is in a rut. The text of the future coastal law has not yet reached Parliament, despite being a priority for Prohens, and the government had to find a replacement this summer for the former Director General of Coasts, Carlos Simarro, who has entered Congress as a deputy, replacing Sandra Fernández.
