Jaume Matas was
declared the president of the Govern of the Balearics with
the votes in favour of the 30 MPs of the Partit Popular and the 3 of Unió
Mallorquina. 25 of the 26 MPs of the left parties voted against,
due to the absence of the MP, Maria Antònia Vadell.
Once the debate has finished in the Balearic Parliament, Jaume Matas will
take official possession of his post today, Friday, in a ceremony at the
Consolat de Mar in Palma. Presumably next Monday the President will
announce the names of the consellers,
or local ministers, who will
form his new cabinet.
