The State Confederation of Doctors SindictedK  (CESM) and Andalusian Medical UnionK  (SMA) accuse the Spanish Government's Ministry of Health O of "not having the will to dialogue" and of not wanting to negotiate with them the terms of the framework statute for doctors.

The meeting between the two sides took place today, and by half an hour the representatives of both trade unions had risen from the table. The pre-agreement reached theday before yesterday by the Ministry of Health with the other power stations (SATSE-FSES, CCOO, UGT, CSIF and CIG-Saude) was not approved. 

In the opinion of the Spanish Government, the CESM and SMA have decided to "maintain the pressure strategy "and, outside the general negotiating table, call for a new dialogue forum, which" does not meet the criteria of social dialogue and current legislation ", since" negotiating processes cannot be fragmented and statutes created for each category ". 

In a statement, CESM and SMA have responded that it was the government that "broke the negotiation" by concluding an agreement with the other unions last Monday,  "ignoring our demands". They have denounced that the announced pre-agreement does not include the main demands of doctors.
