All of these advances are in line with what we have proposed as our roadmap. Leading to our beloved country, Chile, has been a state of well-being and care that is responsible to allow growth and development, especially with its citizens, people are at the center of our actions, as I announced in the last Public Account on housing, we set ourselves an ambitious goal They told us that it was too much that we had not achieved it, that they considered the delivery of 260,000 homes and I want to tell you with joy and pride that on May 30, more than 60,000 homes have been completed and there are another 131,000 that are under construction.
This is a task of long term where the efforts of previous governments and ours are combined And surely those who come will have to inaugurate part of what we do But this is good Because from the Ministry of Housing they have already spent everything destined for precisely the plan housing emergency and therefore we have had to supplement the resources of the Ministry of Housing, thus also strengthening employment in an area as sensitive as construction. Everything that I have told you has been enhanced and allowed by responsible economic management that It has allowed us to achieve a fiscal surplus that had not been possible since 2012 after very turbulent years for the economy, that is, after 10 years we were able to register positive balances in our fiscal accounts.

As you can see, our government has been present, taking care of today's needs, fulfilling, not making promises. In terms of Education, we have launched the educational reactivation plan that in 2002 already managed to carry out repairs in almost 600 establishments. In addition, we have called on tutors to be able to collaborate in reengagement and in supporting the capacities lost during the pandemic.
Our goal was 20,000. tutors we have already sixteen thousand plus we hire 1300 education professionals throughout the country and we project an injection of 155 billion pesos to improve and recover educational spaces especially in rural areas that have been historically abandoned compatriots I know that we cannot move forward towards the future without recognizing the debts we have from the past, that is why today I have reaffirmed the will of our government to take charge of the historical debt of the teachers, a lacerating wound in the national soul, for this we require the resources of a tax reform. In addition, I have pointed out that in the most urgent cases we have the duty to act immediately and therefore my willingness to reach an agreement with the teachers' representatives to address these most urgent cases we also have It is clear that it is necessary to establish a new financing system For those who do not have free education and to alleviate educational debts, however, as I pointed out, our country today does not have sufficient resources to responsibly take charge of these commitments.
Therefore, I have insisted before the National Congress that we resume the discussion on the tax reform that, together with allowing us to advance in these matters, will inject fresh resources that were possible, the implementation of important measures that will directly benefit Chileans. This is not about fattening the state's pockets, it is about financing more and better security of taking care of the debts we have in education, of laying the foundations for a National Care System, of taking care of the waiting lists, for that we need these new resources and I hope to have the support of Congress to be able to carry it forward, compatriots.
