COMMISSION REGIONAL EXEC Utivé Sevilla, November 9, 2010
• attended From UGT Andalucía puzzled how false information can generate both excitement and no one will bother to contrast. This is not the result of an investigation, has not even made the slightest effort to know the truth. No one from ABC and El Mundo has managed to UGT Andalucía to contrast these data before jumping to spread the infamy, especially painful because he to development cooperation to improve working conditions and living standards of workers at the international level, it has done since our founding in 1888.
• Also we find it unacceptable that thereupon Mrs. Rosario Soto, spokesman for the PP Andalucía, has supported ignominy with a lack of verifiable criteria.
• Union Since we are not willing to consent to any kind of slander on our behalf and we will respond as usual, with transparency, defending our rights as workers' organization and workers covered by Article 7 of the Constitution and respect for the law. Here are enu Meran and clarify the most regrettable and unacceptable of these statements about our work in development cooperation.
• Legitimacy. is reiterated in the articles referring to "it is striking that the Board awarded grants for programs of cooperative unions, when the logic is allocated to NGOs have been working on a serious and rigorous (...)." The truth is that UGT and development cooperation did not even exist when the NGOs, since it is a task inherent to our ideological principles, our union objectives and our social role: solidarity with other workers and their organizations in a position tions most disadvantaged. We also believe in justice work with other organizations in the same way that European unions supported us in the past.
• The history and legitimacy of trade union cooperation has been recognized by the English and Andalusian law: and the Master Plan English Cooperation in 2000 defined the unions as political actors in the English international cooperation for development, "and therefore eligible for funding under the Official Development Assistance. In the same way as other organizations, for access to public funding requires us proven experience and thoroughness in the previous work. >>>>
