The new government of Salvador Illa continues with the appointments. The meeting of the Executive Council this Tuesday will agree that the former mayor of L’Hospitalet de Llobregat and current senator of the PSC, Núria Marín, will be the new delegate of the Generalitat in Madrid.
Marín is one of the main representatives of the PSC at the municipal level. In addition to leading the second city of Catalonia for 16 years, he also served as president of the Provincial Council of Catalonia. She left the city hall on June 15 and was replaced by councilor David Quirós.
Born and currently residing in the hospital district of Torrassa, she took office in 2008 after another member of the CPS, Celestino Corbacho, was appointed minister in the government of José Luís Rodríguez Zapatero. His dominance was unquestionable and he chained majority after majority.
The mayor lost the absolute majority a year ago in the last municipal elections, although she had no problem revalidating the position of mayor and winning a large victory: she obtained 13 councilors and the second party was the ERC with 4 councilors. The realization approved the budgets with the abstention of the municipalities. Marín was one of the fervent promoters of the expansion of the Fira de L’Hospitalet and one of the great defenders of the Mobile World Congress.
On the other hand, the Consell Executiu will appoint at its meeting this Tuesday the until now general delegate of the EFE agency in Catalonia, Carles Escolà, the new Secretary of Media and Audiovisual of the Government. Escolà has been part of the agency for 23 years, first as editor, then as head of policy and since 2011 as editor-in-chief.
