Pedro Blanco encourages Eladio Santos to promote and disseminate the Government projects in Ourense and offer the citizens of the province an open, close and resolutive administration

The Government delegate in Galicia, Pedro Blanco, today encouraged the new subdelegate of the Government in Ourense, Eladio Santos, to take on the challenge of promoting and disseminating the investments and projects developed by the Government of Spain in this province and to guarantee its citizens an open, close and resolutive Administration. “From today, you have the mission of being the Government of Spain in the province, of being the reflection of the Government of President Pedro Sánchez,” he said.

Pedro Blanco presided today at the headquarters of the Subdelegation of the Government in Ourense the act of taking office of the new head of this body, of whom he highlighted his professional value and the “generosity and dialogue that marked his professional trajectory in public education”.

In his speech, the delegate reiterated the role of the Subdelegation as “catalyst and channeler of the Government’s action in the province” which translates into the monitoring of the different actions of the Government, with special attention to infrastructures, or in the execution of the funds of the Plan of Recovery, Transformation and Resilience in municipalities and companies. “Citizens have the right to know that the Government of Spain is behind social housing, aid to improve the energy efficiency of housing, renovation of hospital facilities or actions to promote sustainable mobility, among others,” he insisted.

The delegate also had words for Emilio González, predecessor in office, whom he thanked for the five years at the head of the Agency “in which your vocation of public service was always very present, which you already had as a doctor but which became more accentuated during your time in the Subdelegation of Ourense”.

In response, Emilio González thanked the Government for the trust placed in him throughout these years and had words of recognition for the dedication and loyalty of the people who work in the Subdelegation of the Government, National Police, Civil Guard and State Administration agencies in the province.
