The deputy of Canarian Coalition (DC) in the Congress of Deputies, Cristina Validohas submitted a written question about the water supply problems in the Penitentiary Center Tenerife II, located in the municipality of El Rosario. The letter is addressed to the Ministry of the Interior and focuses on whether the work to expand the Tenerife II warehouse and canalization has been incorporated into the Amortization and Creation Plan for Penitentiary Centers.
Valido, who is also a CC councilor in El Rosario, “demands answers” and “knowing what the expected deadline for the execution of this workor any other action planned to solve the serious water supply problems that this prison facility presents.
«There are many times that different administrations have been demanding improvements in the Tenerife II prison facilities, problems that have become evident after the water cuts suffered during the fire that devastated the Island in August, with its reactivations in this month of October, and what they left no water supply to prisoners that they are there,” explains the nationalist deputy in a note.
Valido recalled that “this week there were cuts again, which once again left the facility without water.” And the press release sent yesterday by CC adds: “For this reason, the nationalist deputy will take this problem to Congress through a parliamentary initiative so that the Interior responds to the different questions raised by the Canary Islands deputy.”
As you may remember, a party from the El Rosario City Council announced last Wednesday that, due to the breakage of the Aguamansa canal, intermittent water cuts had to be made in the Tenerife II Penitentiary Center and in other parts of the municipality. The affected areas, in addition to the prison, were Egatesa, Embutidos de Tenerife and Llano del Moro (La Mina, del Medio, La Palma and Los Bacallado roads, and Los Amigos, Viñatea, Los Costeros and Francisco Paulino Vera streets, among others) , listed the aforementioned municipal side.
It so happens that recently, in a conference at the Económica, the mayor of El Rosario, Escolásico Gil (IR-Verdes), insisted on the need to find a solution to the water supply problems in the prison, while regretting the treatment received by the State. “I already repeated it last Thursday,” an annoyed Escolásico Gil would later complain. «What they have to do is stop messing around; “Let them do the work and take the network directly to the prison, because, if not, I have to cut everyone off,” added the local councilor.
