Euskaraz irakurri: Abortions gaineko eztabaida hasiko du Konstituzionalak, abstentzioak eta errekusazioak tarteko
After nearly 13 years in the box, the high court As of this Tuesday, the appeal of the PP against the abortion law with several abstentions and challenges on the table and a possible change of speaker as some suggest change of standard which the progressive majority does not accept.
The first major in-depth debate with the new composition of the court is expected to have to wait until Wednesday, as the Presidency’s intention is to address abstentions and contestations this Tuesday to avoid the plenary session without the minimum to sit of eight magistrates and then enter the bottom of the Wednesdaywhich can also be postponed.
For example, the plenary session will deal with the abstentions and challenges affecting four magistrates who in one way or another contributed to the processing of that norm: Candido Count-PumpidoJuan Carlos Fieldspotless Montalban and conception mirror.
Espejel and Montalbán were members of the CGPJ who wrote a report on the law; Conde-Pumpido was attorney general when the Fiscal Council issued its report, and Campo was secretary of state for justice, the ministry that drafted the law.
But to date, only Espejel has announced his abstention and while neither Montalbán, Campo, nor Conde-Pumpido intend to do so as it could create a lack of “quorum” to resolve, Espejel’s decision could have consequences especially for Montalbán because he is in exactly the same position.
In addition to the abstentions, there are four challenges made by five former deputies of the PP of the 71 who appealed, although legal sources suggest they have little experience as only the petitioners as a whole can appeal and have failed to do so.
Once these issues are resolved, the plenary session will begin with a debate on the paper by conservative Enrique Arnaldo, who endorses the law of 2010 and he considers only one issue unconstitutional, the article regulating the information women are more likely to receive, since they have not been properly informed.
It also proposes to delineate the interpretation of two concepts: that conscientious objection not only concerns the health personnel involved in the intervention, but also those who participate for it, and the reference to social health to make the intervention justify. abortion.
The progressive majority, from seven to four in the plenary, intends to fully endorse the abortion law promoted in 2010 under the government of José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero without accepting restrictions or conditions on the right to abortion, sources say.
When this happens, they open two scenarios: That Arnaldo take the position of the majority or resign from the newspaper so that it is another magistrate who writes it according to the feeling of the majority and so it is approved in the next plenary session.
