Need to inform
The Head of Government , Xavier Espot , has responded by defending the need not to contrast communication with impact studies, because " they are two different but complementary issues ".
Espot has seen it as an obligation for the executive after the Political Survey of AR+I to inform citizens more about the Agreement with the EU: "67% of respondents said that they were little or not at all informed about the Association Agreement. The Government's obligation is to respond to this concern," said Espot .
Espot has emphasized that both citizens and economic sectors require " rigorous and neutral communication actions ", and has highlighted that sectoral impact studies already exist and have been made available to associations. In addition, the Head of Government has explained that the studies could not be done until the final details of the Agreement, which were closed in December of last year, were known.
