The intendant of Montevideo, Carolina Cosséspoke this Tuesday at a press conference on the Popular Solidarity Coordinator (CPS)and stated that the commune will continue to provide food to the coordinator of pots, despite the fact that the Ministry of Social Development (Mides) withdrew his support as intermediary.
“The mayor will continue to provide support as before. We not only support, monitor and control. If a pot closes, we stopped giving him foodif the weekly frequency varies, we We also vary the amount of inputs that are granted to him”, detailed Cosse.
The hierarch criticized the discussion of the granting of supplies be brought to the “public level”.
“We’re like trapped in a discussion Let’s see who supports the potswhen in fact what needs to be discussed is why there are 300 popular pots in MontevideoCosse questioned.
In addition, he referred to thelack of work” What cause that the citizens must go to the folk pots.
“If there were work, the pots would not exist, because people could eat at home“, he remarked and added that “when there are people who they can’t workfor a theme mental healthof addictionthe State has to attend the same because they are part of society. I think those are the things to discuss and not stay in a discussion that actually does not touch the center point“, he added.
The CPS has been at the center of controversy the last few weeks for refusal of the coordinator of pots to deliver data to the Ministry of Development .
Given this response, the Minister Martin Lemawarned that “if there is no data, there is no support” and last Saturday, October 1 removed the endorsement of the Mides to the CPS.
As is public knowledge, on August 29 we requested from the @midesuy the updating of data on pots and snack bars that receive support in supplies through Uruguay Adelante, establishing September 30 as the deadline for delivery of information.
