The plenary session of the Senate this Tuesday finalized the law General government budgets for 2023including one 8.5% pension increase, the free Cercanías service or a reduction in personal income tax for low incomes.
The plenary session of the upper house passed the law without any changes, finalizing the budget without going back to Congress.
These are the coalition government’s third budgets and, predictably, also the last, as the processing schedule for the final 2024 accounts coincides with the dissolution of parliament and the election campaign.
The budgets have been counted in Congress with the support of PSOE, Unidas Podemos, PNV, EH Bildu, PDeCAT, Coalición Canaria, Más País, Compromís and PRC, who have joined Més per Mallorca, PAR and the Association Gomera in the Senate Socialist .
