SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, Oct. 10 (EUROPA PRESS) –
The spokesperson for the Socialist Parliamentary Group, Sebastián Franquis, has denounced the “improvisation” of the Canary Islands Government regarding its decision this Tuesday to suspend classes in non-university education centers throughout the Archipelago due to high temperatures for this Wednesday and Friday, since “It was taken after said alert ended last Friday the 6th.”
Sebastián Franquis has indicated that the Socialist Group would like to know the information that the Minister of Education of the Government of the Canary Islands, Poli Suárez, has to make this decision once the alert for high temperatures has ended and that it is not approved beforehand. preventive or during it. “What worries us is that there may be improvisation and lack of coordination,” he added.
The socialist spokesperson wanted to remember that the Government of the Canary Islands, through the General Directorate of Emergencies, declared the alert situation due to high temperatures in Gran Canaria and Tenerife and the pre-alert in the rest of the Archipelago last Wednesday, October 4, decreeing the ending on Friday, October 6: “We wonder why they didn’t suspend classes during these three days and do so now when there is no longer an alert.”
In this sense, Franquis pointed out that the suspension of classes in educational centers “must be carried out under prevention criteria and with necessary planning, as the previous Government of the Canary Islands did before the arrival of tropical storm Hermine in September 2022. “. “These decisions must be made preventively and with sufficient coordination and planning,” he added.
