Balearic PP Says More Than 95% of Its Government Programme Is Completed or Underway

September 08, 2026

The Partido Popular in the Balearic Islands has begun the new political year with a major assessment of its record in government, claiming that more than 95% of the commitments contained in its programme have either already been completed or are currently underway.

The figure was presented on Monday, September 7, by Balearic President Marga Prohens during the launch of the party's new "Dit i fet" campaign, an initiative designed to highlight what the PP describes as its delivery of electoral promises.

For Ibiza, the political message was reinforced by Consell de Ibiza President Vicent Marí, who outlined the island government's priorities for the final stage of the current mandate, including tourism management, public transport, investment and reducing pressure on the island.

PP Launches "Dit i fet" Accountability Campaign

The Balearic PP has launched the "Dit i fet" campaign as part of its political strategy ahead of the final stretch of the current legislature.

The Catalan expression, which can be translated roughly as "said and done", is intended to underline the party's claim that commitments made during the election campaign have been translated into government action.

Marga Prohens said the PP had reached this point in the legislature with more than 95% of its government programme either completed or already in progress.

She presented that figure as the party's strongest argument for maintaining and increasing public confidence.

Importantly, the 95% figure is a claim made by the governing Partido Popular as part of its political accountability campaign. It is not an independently established assessment presented in the Noudiari report.

José Vicente Marí Highlights Measures Affecting the Islands

José Vicente Marí, the PP's national coordinator for infrastructure, transport and tourism, also took part in the political assessment.

He highlighted several measures at national level that he said had moved forward thanks to the Partido Popular.

Among them, he pointed to the constitutional reform giving Formentera its own senator as an independent island constituency.

He also highlighted the increase in the island supplement for public servants, presenting both measures as examples of policies affecting the Balearic Islands that the party says it has helped advance.

The comments form part of the PP's wider argument that its influence extends from local institutions to the national political arena.

Ibiza's Island Government Focuses on "Ordering" the Island

Vicent Marí used the start of the political year to outline the priorities of the Consell de Ibiza for the final phase of the mandate.

He described the legislature as a period in which the island government had moved from diagnosis towards concrete action.

Among the areas he highlighted were managing tourist flows, reducing pressure on Ibiza, improving public transport and completing investments that had remained pending.

The message reflects some of the central challenges facing Ibiza as it attempts to balance a major tourism economy with the needs of its resident population and limited island infrastructure.

Tourism Pressure Remains a Major Political Issue

One of the most prominent points in Marí's assessment was the need to better manage tourist flows.

Ibiza faces intense seasonal pressure on roads, accommodation, public services, water resources and other infrastructure.

The Consell president said the island government is entering the final stage of the mandate with the objective of consolidating measures already introduced to better regulate those pressures.

The PP's framing presents tourism management not simply as an economic issue, but as part of a wider strategy to protect the island's capacity to provide services to residents.

Public Transport Among the Priorities

Improving public transport is another area highlighted by Vicent Marí.

The island government has repeatedly identified mobility as one of the key challenges facing Ibiza, particularly during the summer when traffic volumes increase dramatically.

According to the PP's assessment, improving transport services forms part of its broader attempt to reduce pressure on the island and make mobility more sustainable.

The party says the final phase of the mandate will focus on completing projects already underway and consolidating the measures introduced during the legislature.

Ibiza Still Waiting for Major Infrastructure Decisions

Marí also used the occasion to reiterate demands to the Spanish government on several major infrastructure and funding issues.

Among the areas specifically mentioned were Ibiza Airport, roads, security, financing and insularity.

The Consell president called for an effective response from the State to the pressure created by irregular migration and argued that Ibiza needs adequate funding for the responsibilities currently assumed by the island administration.

These demands demonstrate that the PP's political assessment is not limited to its own achievements. It also serves as a platform for highlighting areas where the island government says decisions depend on higher levels of government.

Airport Expansion Remains on the Political Agenda

The airport was specifically included among the issues that Vicent Marí wants the State to address during the remaining period of the mandate.

Ibiza Airport has been the subject of significant debate, particularly over planned improvements, passenger capacity, infrastructure and the future scale of tourism on the island.

The Consell president said Ibiza needs its concerns to be addressed in relation to the airport as well as roads and other major infrastructure.

The comments come as Ibiza continues to debate how much additional tourism and transport infrastructure the island can absorb.

The Final Stretch of the Legislature

The Balearic PP's latest political campaign comes with the current legislature moving towards its final stage.

That makes the presentation of completed and ongoing projects increasingly important for the governing party.

At the Balearic level, Prohens is seeking to demonstrate that a substantial majority of the government's programme has already been delivered or is being implemented.

On Ibiza, Vicent Marí is similarly focusing on projects and policies that the Consell says have moved from planning into execution.

The coming months are therefore likely to see a greater emphasis on demonstrating results and completing projects before the next elections.

Formentera's Political Position Also Highlighted

The issue of Formentera's representation in the Spanish Senate was among the national measures singled out by José Vicente Marí.

A constitutional reform has been approved to establish Formentera as a separate island constituency for Senate elections, meaning the island will have its own senator instead of sharing the Ibiza and Formentera constituency arrangement.

The reform is a significant institutional development for Formentera and has been supported as a way of giving the island independent representation at national level.

The PP presented the change as one of several measures that it considers particularly relevant to the Balearic Islands.

The PP's Message to Voters

The overall message from the Balearic PP is built around the idea of fulfilling commitments.

The "Dit i fet" campaign seeks to present the party as one that has converted electoral promises into government action.

The claim that more than 95% of the programme is completed or underway is therefore central to the campaign's political narrative.

For Ibiza, the message is being adapted to local issues such as tourism pressure, transport, investment and relations with the Spanish government.

Whether voters ultimately agree with the PP's assessment will depend on how they evaluate those policies and projects, but the party has clearly entered the final phase of the legislature on a strongly results-focused message.

What Comes Next for Ibiza?

Vicent Marí said the objective for the remainder of the mandate is to consolidate what has already been achieved and complete the projects that are still underway.

He also intends to continue pressing Madrid on issues that the Consell considers crucial for the island.

The priorities identified include airport infrastructure, roads, security, financing and insularity, alongside continued efforts to manage tourism and improve public transport.

That combination of local delivery and demands on the State is likely to remain central to the PP's political strategy as the 2027 elections approach.
