Junts acuerda rechazar los dos decretos de vivienda del Gobierno

El partido independentista catalán desvela su oposición al texto legal a escasas horas de que se proceda a la votación en el Congreso

Junts acuerda rechazar los dos decretos de vivienda del Gobierno

Junts per Catalunya has decided to reject the two housing decrees proposed by the government for presentation to the Congress of Deputies on Friday. The Catalan independentist party has been internally assessing its stance on an issue considered highly sensitive and has made the decision public by the evening of Thursday. It requests the withdrawal of the decrees and an accelerated drafting of a new one, arguing that the measures included in the current text "will have the opposite effect", meaning they will reduce rental supply and further increase prices.

This is a clear setback for the Executive, which has no room for retreat in the Congress regarding the decrees. The Catalan party firmly believes that this stance will have consequences, as its spokesperson in Congress, Míriam Nogueras, had previously indicated.
