Tunisia shows "the satisfaction that the news of receiving a month after the start of the state of alarm, a first shipment from the Government of Spain, as the competent authority in this situation, of personal protection material" supposed to this City Council, but claims In the first place, greater planning: "given that the Government of Spain, as the competent authority, had decided to return to work several large numbers of workers by Monday, April 13, it is entirely rash that we had the first news of the system delivery the previous afternoon. "

In addition, the document sent by the Government Delegation in this regard, did not indicate any method or criteria for distribution, leaving the Police Coordination Table with the responsibility of preparing a distribution plan that must be personal and individual, not to companies or Collectives.

"

In the letter sent, the mayor of Puerto Lumbreras also expresses the full collaboration of the City Council in this and whatever actions are proposed to stop the expansion of the coronavirus "despite this certain improvisation, and insisting on the necessary coordination and prior planning through the Federation of Municipalities, the General Directorate of Local Administration or the City Councils themselves ".
