Rocamora explained that the City of Cehegín already approved in the declaration of this free municipality of fracking, at the request of the Socialist government itself.

This refusal has led the PSOE in the Regional Assembly request the review of the authorization and permissions research projects in which you plan to use this technique in the region, including as a precautionary measure the suspension of research permits thereof, as well as other possible gas extraction projects through this aggressive technique.

In addition, mayors and mayors Socialists insist that the construction costs of operation and maintenance Northwest Highway (shadow toll) of territorialized spending in the budgets of the CARM for the municipalities of Caravaca, Cehegín, Bullas and Mula are excluded.

In the mayor of Cehegín opinion, the inclusion of the shadow toll by the formula "discriminate and contributes to historical inequalities between the Northwest Region and the rest of the region."

Moreover, Rocamora explained that all these issues should be treated in the Federation of Municipalities, a body that is not yet organized in this term.

In this regard, Rafael González Tovar has demanded that the Regional Government to urgently convene the Constituent Assembly of the Federation of Municipalities and Provinces, because according to them, "should be the institution to coordinate and prioritize municipal policies and the main interlocutor of municipalities to the Regional Government and the nation.
