Madrid, May 8 (EFE) .- Aena said Thursday that both the Community of Madrid and the City Council of the Capital are aware of “the reality” of the five hundred homeless people who live at the Barajas airport, and affirms that both administrations work to improve their situation.
In a statement published on Thursday, Aena has responded to the published information about the situation of the Syntch that sleeps in the Barajas facilities, after the denunciation of a union alternative AENA/ENAIRE of the problems that are being generated by safety, health and hygiene, in addition to the existence of an insect plague in terminal 4.
According to Aena, who already reported on Tuesday through another statement that there is no plague after the intervention of a company specialized in environmental hygiene, local and regional public authorities (Community of Madrid and City Council of the capital) “know this reality and are working to improve the situation of homeless people.”
In addition, he says that they are “in permanent contact” and “is coordinated” with both administrations “that have administrative competences in social matters”, and have transmitted to AENA that they are aware that these people “require social protection, adequate attention and a dignified solution, which in no case can be inhabiting in an airport”.
And he adds that the table for the hospitality of Madrid, of which entities such as Caritas are part, has prepared in the past weeks a census of these people, to determine “their concrete profile and their needs”, which will make available to the competent public authorities in social services.
Aena emphasizes that airports “are designed and equipped, exclusively, for passenger traffic and, therefore, are not prepared for people to live in them.”
“Local and regional public authorities know this reality and are working to improve the situation of homeless people,” says Aena, who indicates that he has already deployed “all necessary measures to, within their competences, guarantee the well -being of passengers and airport workers.”
On the health of the facilities, it denies the existence of “no plague”, but has launched hygienization measures “in all sensitive areas and those indicated by airport workers.” EFE
