MALLORCA TODAY - Call for Delgado to resign over girlfriend appointment

Opposition parties have today demanded the resignation of Balearics tourism minister Carlos Delgado following the appointment as a technical adviser within the tourism ministry of his girlfriend, Lourdes Reynés. The tourism ministry has issued a statement in which it explains that the position had fallen vacant and that Reynés will be remunerated to the tune of 46,200 euros per annum, which is less than she had been receiving in a post with the Playa de Palma consortium.
