The PP accuses Sánchez of "crush" to the Senate for using the Parity Law to strip him of his veto on the spending ceiling

June 22 () –

The Deputy Secretary of Economy of the PP, Juan Bravo, believes that the Government of Pedro Sánchez has proven to be a “crusher” of institutions for having used an amendment to the Parity Law to remove the Senate’s ability to veto budget stability objectives. .

“It perfectly defines what the Sánchez Government is: a crusher,” Bravo stated on this topic. In his opinion, having introduced that amendment to bypass the Senate in the phase prior to the presentation of the Budgets in a law promoted by the Ministry of Equality shows that the Executive does not “believe in respect” and neither does it “in the “.

“He does not believe in institutions, he does not believe in respect, he does not believe in judges, he does not believe in the Independent Authority for Fiscal Responsibility (AIReF), he does not believe in organizations, he does not make Budgets,” Juan Bravo denounced in statements to Parliament. from RNE collected by Europa Press.

THE LAWYER WARNED OF POSSIBLE UNCONSTITUTIONALITY

Precisely, the lawyer from the Congressional Equality Commission questioned the constitutionality of PSOE and Sumar using a law to introduce other legal changes on unrelated matters, as is happening in this case.

In a report to the Commission Table chaired by the socialist Susana Ros, the lawyer questioned the amendment signed by the PSOE and Sumar to include in a law promoted by the Ministry of Equality a foreign legal change, specifically to modify the Law of Budget Stability.

The lawyer understands that the amendment is not consistent with the purpose of the project and the lack of material connection between the amendment and the legislative initiative being processed is even “evident”, which could violate article 23 of the Spanish Constitution.

This article recognizes the right of citizens to participate in public affairs, directly or through representatives, freely chosen in periodic elections by universal suffrage. It also recognizes the right to access public functions and positions under equal conditions, with the requirements established by law.

PSOE AND SUMAR IGNORED THE REPORT AND THE PP APPEALS

But the Board of the Equality Commission, with a majority of PSOE and Sumar, ignored the lawyer’s warnings and accepted the processing of the amendment and it was even incorporated into the law in the presentation phase, which is held behind closed doors.

With this panorama, the PP has presented a reconsideration letter to the Congress Board chaired by Francina Armengol, using that report from the lawyer and demanding that the amendment be annulled for “infringement of the legislative procedure.”
