Palma.Partido Popular José Ramón Bauzà told Parliament yesterday that he would take whatever decision was necessary with regard to reducing the public deficit and stimulating economic growth.
He furthered it is the future that is at stake. I am not interested in keeping unrealistic options open or bargaining with other political parties.
With specific reference to the regional Health service and plans to close two hospitals in Palma, Bauzà said that although the decision has been taken to close the Joan March and the General Hospitals, a long term care unit is to be opened up at the former Son Dureta hospital.
Bauzà said that people in the Balearic Islands know that although two buildings are shutting down, the number of beds is not affected and long term care for those who need it will be provided.
When challenged by Socialist Opposition leader Francina Armengol to create economic growth accusing the President of improvising policies, Bauzà replied that his task would now be much easier if the previous government hadn't wasted so much public money on subsidies.
