The only condition that the left-wing groups had established to move forward with the motion of censure against Llorenç motion of censure against Llorenç Córdoba was the resignation of José Mauel Alcaraz. This allowed removing him from the presidency of the Consell Insular de Formentera and appointing in his place Óscar Portas. Óscar Portas.
However, in the first plenary session of the minority government of Sa Unió they tried to put him back in through the window: they wanted to appoint the former councilor and former president of the PP of Formentera as an alternate in the Social Council of the University of the Balearic Islands (UIB). The new conseller of Environment, Verónica Castelló, had advanced as a possibility the reincorporation of José Manuel reincorporation of José Manuel Alcaraz as a position of trust in the new government. However, Gent per Formentera, the PSOE and the non-attached councilor, Llorenç Córdoba, have rejected with their votes the proposals presented by sa Unió during Thursday’s plenary session to appoint representatives of the institution in different administrations, which was addressed by the urgent procedure. The two left-wing forces argued that it is not appropriate for someone forced to resign for breaching the Code of Ethics to represent the institution. In addition, the government team has also failed to succeed in its proposals for appointments to the transfer commissions and the general commission of Consells of the Balearic Parliament. In the latter, it proposed the representation of two members of sa Unió and one of Gent per Formentera, leaving the PSOE as an alternate. However, the progressive forces demand that all groups have equal representation. “Normally, what the opposition does is to abstain. I did not expect them to vote against. If they had warned me before the start of the plenary, we could have reached an agreement. In the next plenary session we will bring these two proposals again and agreed with the opposition,” said the president of the Consell, Óscar Portas.
