At the opening of the offices Cabildo councillor Magaliz López Garcia, spoke of the high number of people who used the 24 hour telephone line last year (over 70,000) and the development, in this office, of the telematic service on offer.  For instance people searching for information can drop into the office where they will be given a password to use the on-site public computer, to make reservations, etc.  Cabildo president Ricardo Melchior welcomed the initiative as part of the Cabildo’s ongoing commitment to provide a service for all the citizens of Tenerife and made special mention of those many residents, particularly in the South of Tenerife, who don’t speak Spanish but still have the need of Cabildo information and services. Servicing that need, the offices have a full time multi-lingual officer, Alejandro Alonso, who speaks excellent English and some German.  Magaliz added that information and assistance in English was also available on the 24 hour telephone line, 901 501 901.

It’s nice to know that in today’s busy world where the emphasis seems to be on depersonalising services and information, with the only form of contact via a website or email message the human touch is still considered important by some, and with this new office it is very much to the fore.
