The lack of a social policy has led the government of Macri and Michetti, the creation of so-called Control Unit Public Space (UCEP), a nocturnal gang who using methods similar to those of the military dictatorship responsible for carrying out evictions compulsive living homeless on the street. The UCEP is replacing BAP (Buenos Aires Present), which is responsible for providing housing to those living on the street.
The administration of the Government of the Autonomous City Buenos Aires, through the Ministry of Public Space, is pursuing a policy of reclaiming public space, displacing the homeless in squares, streets, parks and public properties. The recovery of the available space by a simple administrative decision as provided in Article 12 of Decree 151097.
But what about the people evicted? People, often large families become assisted in the Buenos Aires Plan Present (BAP), a plan to the reception and settlement of claims of care for street people, social risk and / or rights violated. This Plan also addresses the problems and seeks to solve the problem of the homeless, also called homeless or street people. When a person or family is evicted receive a small allowance that barely afford to rent a room in a hotel, for a time, until they finally end up back on the street. BAP is working well, revealing also the central problem is the lack of a containment plan for homeless families. The same problems are observed in relation to street children. The BAP did not blanket or contain them. The most serious cases have to do with children who have addictions because there are no places to begin a recovery treatment. The problem is no less serious for those with psychiatric illness, specialized centers have no vacancies for care. It is noteworthy that long ago, the BAP attended the 24 Hrs. solving serious problems that required urgent intervention, then the BAP received 20 to 100 calls per day in summer and from 500 to 1000 per day in winter. Now, the BAP reduced the opening hours from 08.00 Hrs. only until 20.00 Hrs. At this time ending the attention of the BAP, starts the night increases the risk and fear for the homeless. Expressed fear at the prospect of being hit by the violent actions of the UCEP. It is at night in BAP that the limited functions delegated to the UCEP.
Decree 1232 / 8, signed by Macri, Piccardo and Grindetti, created the Control Unit Public Space (UCEP). Is a group of about 30 bouncers entitled to ° maintaining free public space allowed squatters to ¨ ¨ and functionally cooperate in maintaining order ¨. PRO authentic soldiers. Were involved in the eviction by force of pickers in Barracks Belgrano. Today they are the protagonists in all silent evictions that is running the government Macri, act violently against cardboard and rag pickers in the streets are dressed in civilian clothes, preferably with black and are the first to arrive in any conflict situation, regardless of the ministry involved, and not only operate for Public Space.
Just 30 days into their work space control ¨ public ¨, the UCEP was reported three times before the Ombudsman of the City of Buenos Aires. The complaints refer to violent actions against cardboard and rag pickers in the street. The most violent and cruel is that he realizes that thirteen people who fell from a truck with the Registration · Panizza ¨ and four trucks at the intersection of Lima Street and Independence Avenue, beat a group of people staying on the street. They threw all their belongings and documents to a compactor. One of the victims from the patentee of the truck and blew the whistle. After the Ombudsman found that the truck is on behalf of the Government of the City.
Another complaint was made by the parish priest of the Immaculate Heart of Mary Church, who reported to the Ombudsman who witnessed the assault suffered by a homeless man almost 70 years, who for months slept under the freeway. Saw over 20 young people threw him with punches, kicks, insults and death threats on behalf of City Government while he gave 24 Hrs. to vacate the place under pain of back and burn all your belongings or kill you.
In twelve months in which the Government of Macri and applied Michetti silent evictions policy towards the recovery of public space, has doubled the number of homeless in the city. The indices for the future are not encouraging. To date more than 20 000 people in eviction.
The BAP, in previous administrations that of Macri, was primarily aimed at the inclusion, integration and containment. Today is a referral program with the UCEP. For the Engineer
Macri, who vetoed the Emergency Housing Act passed by the Legislature of the City, the state must guarantee the right to housing, this is explained by watching the budget of the Housing Institute of the City (IVC) this year has with only 120 million of the more than 500 million pesos allocated in previous budgets. Of the 120 million today, 100 million are earmarked for the payment of salaries and the operation of the IVC, which reveals that virtually no funding for new homes.

only enough to say that the only policy that the Government of Macri is ready to implement to solve the problem without ceiling, which applies from the UCEP. A genuine process of reorganization of Oppression. That is the PRO.
