The Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) of Chiclana has accused the Popular Party (PP) of presenting inflated figures regarding the investments made by the Junta de Andalucía in the city, amidst the Andalusian election campaign.

The general secretary of the Chiclana socialists, whose name is not mentioned, criticized the statements made by the local PP president and candidate for the Andalusian Parliament, also unnamed, concerning the projects funded by the regional government in the municipality.
According to the socialist leader, the investment figures provided by the PP representative have varied, initially cited as 150 million euros and later as 94 million. However, the PSOE asserts that the actual investment by the Junta in Chiclana over the past eight years amounts to 6.2 million euros.
These statements were made in front of the Nueva Gadeira interpretation center, a project that, according to the PSOE, did not receive direct regional funding. Instead, it was developed with European funds transferred by the Spanish Government. It was noted that the center's inauguration was attended by the then Vice President of the Government, Nadia Calviño.
The socialist leader also questioned other projects attributed by the PP to the Junta, such as the Rana Verde road and the bus station, indicating that these were also financed with European funds. In the housing sector, the PSOE criticized the PP for attributing the construction of residential developments on Delicias street and in the El Pilar area to the Junta. They clarified that the 55 homes delivered on Delicias street were built by a company and funded by the Spanish Government without regional contributions. The 47 homes currently under construction are co-financed by the City Council and the regional administration.
For the 26 homes in El Pilar, the City Council contributes 1.3 million euros, the Junta provides 522,000 euros, and the Spanish Government contributes 863,000 euros. Furthermore, hydraulic and environmental infrastructures were questioned, with claims that the wastewater treatment plants announced by the Junta have not received investment despite announcements of projects exceeding 30 million euros.
In the education sector, the PSOE criticized the PP for highlighting investments in schools while ongoing needs persist in municipal schools and institutes, such as the demand for an emergency staircase at CEIP La Atlántida and the request for a new institute in La Barrosa. Finally, the PP's references to health investments were challenged, citing the municipality's “healthcare collapse” and the lack of progress on projects like La Cucarela or a future hospital.
