MALLORCA Local Government has decided that the money recovered in corruption cases should be destined to social policies.
The motion was presented by the socialist party, and proposed that any money recovered thanks to sentences in corruption cases should be used to promote social policies which improve the resources and quality of life of the neediest members of the society.
The conservative Partido Popular agreed to the proposal, which they say is in line with their plans to “help the island’s neediest citizens.”
It is estimated that the Mallorca Council could receive some €15 million in the coming months from such cases.
