The provincial leader took advantage of her appearance in the Galician Chamber to argue that public resources "belong to the citizens" and should not depend on "who governs in another institution." She proposed an agreement that would oblige all administrations to follow clear rules for fund distribution, avoiding political dependence for the municipalities.
The Provincial Council's Budgets for 2027, which grow by 14.77% compared to the current fiscal year, include almost 20 million euros in additional funds. The Plan Diputación, the main instrument for economic cooperation with municipalities, will increase by 2.75 million, reaching 25 million euros. With this proposal, 63 out of the 67 municipalities in the province will receive more funds.
In addition to funding, the Provincial Council will reinforce its commitment to the technical capacity of municipalities. The budgets include one million euros to improve the Collection service, continued investment in Mencía, the institution's own artificial intelligence, and the launch of a provincial drone service for technical assistance in territorial management, infrastructure, and the environment.
The roads chapter will receive 23.65 million euros, a 25.1% increase, for the conservation and maintenance of the provincial road network of 4,217 kilometers. For emergencies, the allocation will amount to 5.51 million, an 11% increase, to strengthen the system, including the Provincial Consortium of Firefighters and the project for a fire station in Montaña. 204,300 euros will also be allocated to make the province "fully" cardioprotected.
Care for the elderly will remain a priority, with an investment of 16.17 million euros, a 37% increase, for care centers. The Provincial Council will also support productive sectors such as livestock farming (2.72 million for the Gayoso Castro Experimental Dairy Farm), tourism (1.63 million for river routes), and environmental care in the Biosphere Reserves (685,000 euros). Additionally, there will be investments in museums, sports, culture, and associative fabric.
