The Permanent Deputation validates the prohibition of evictions, but rejects the automatic and indefinite extension of rents
The Spanish Parliament's Permanent Deputation has validated a decree banning evictions and extending rental agreements for two years with a 2% rent cap. However, a second decree aiming to automatically and indefinitely extend these contracts was rejected. The ruling PSOE and Sumar, along with leftist allies, voted for both decrees but only saved the first one. The PP, Vox, UPN, and Junts, representing the right, rejected both decrees, with the PNV helping to block the second, more ambitious measure.
