The Deputy Mayor of Divinópolis, Rinaldo Valério categorically stated to PORTAL GERAIS, this Wednesday (16), that the mining company Vale will take over the work to conclude the work on the Regional Hospital of Divinópolis.
Rinaldo assured that the multinational will start work in 30 days, as he received a response from the person responsible for partnerships between the Government of Minas Gerais and private companies.
“Obtive resposta recente do Ian Queiroz, que é o responsável pelas parcerias entre o Governo do Estado e as empresas privadas. Entretanto a Vale está disposta a concluir as obras do Hospital Regional de Divinópolis.
As well as compensation for the damage caused to the State, when the solid waste dams broke; environmental, social and human damage that were caused by the accident in Brumadinho and Mariana”, he sentenced.
Valério celebrates the information and said that the last act before the mining company starts its work in Divinópolis. Thus will be the signing of the state protocol, which will happen in a month.
“The news is very good for Divinópolis, because within a month Vale will sign the protocol with the State and the company will start the works to complete the construction of our Regional Hospital. Some companies have already shown interest in managing the Hospital and the State Government will study the proposals for choosing the winner”, celebrates.
State does not confirm
The state government is in the process of analyzing the proposals, which were presented by companies interested in taking over the execution of these works in cities where construction has already begun. The Public Taking of Subsidies (TPS) started in May last year. For now, the State does not confirm that Vale will take over the work and does not deny it, it just says that it is analyzing it.
“The activities related to the public notice were concluded at the end of 2019 and the Working Group prepared a final report containing the main subsidies delivered and observed and the considerations raised throughout the process. The report has already been finalized and the information presented is under analysis”, he clarifies.
Result in January
According to the Office of Communication of the State Department of Health, the deadline for the conclusion of the analyzes of proposals is until the end of this month of January. After the announcement of the winners of each of the works, the expectation is that the winning companies start the works immediately. So there is still no deadline set for the resumption of work at the Divinopolitano health complex.
Return Works
“The forecast is that by the end of January the examination of the information will be finalized, considering the reality of each Regional Hospital. There is still no forecast of dates for the resumption of works, since the proposals are under analysis”, cites the official note.
Among those qualified to manage and fund the hospital is the Intermunicipal Health Consortium of the Extended West Region for the Management of Urgency and Emergency Services (Cis-Urg), which manages Samu.
