Un precedente con muchas y radicales dudas: ¿es constitucional aprobar los decretos de vivienda tras la disolución de las Cortes?
El Gobierno de Pedro Sánchez ya usó la vía de la Diputación Permanente del Congreso para aprobar una norma sobre vivienda rechazada por el Pleno, pero en circunstancias distintas
The Spanish government rejected two housing bills this Friday, prompting an early election announced on Monday by Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez. However, the government plans to submit a new legal text to the Congress' Permanent Commission, the body that retains some of the functions of the dissolved Parliament, as the vote of Junts — crucial in the Plenary rejection — may be irrelevant in the Permanent Commission due to the reduced weight of Junts' representation.
This body mirrors the Plenary's representation, but with a significant difference: Junts' representation carries less weight in the 69 Permanent Commission deputies compared to the 350 Plenary seats. The question arises: is it constitutional for the government to exploit this numerical disparity to approve, through a "downgraded" body, what was just rejected by the Plenary representing popular sovereignty?
