Orihuela Vox municipal group in Orihuela has restructured its pool of advisors after the controversial dismissal of its press advisor and the advisor to the Family Department. It has also increased the salary pf another of it’s advisors, Héctor Mateo Sigüenza, by over 30% from 30,000 euros annually to 40,197.08 euros. Mateo is Manuel Mestre’s right-hand man in the Coastal Department

The Public relations appointment was to be filled by Yolanda Cabezuelo, partner of the Vox spokesperson in Torrevieja, although that has now been changed to the publicist Belén Fabregat Giménez, who until now directed the marketing area of Radio Orihuela Cadena SER, and who is also the daughter of the director of the station.

Replacing Pascual Pertegal, who was fired a few weeks ago, the post of advisor to the Family Department will be the lawyer Juan Octavio Sempere, whose appointment is pending, and still to be approved by the mayor.

Although Vox promised during the electoral campaign to reduce expenses regarding temporary personnel, it is reported that payments to its staff continue to rise due to the generalised salary increase.
