He General Council for the Judiciary (CGPJ) will meet next Monday at 19:00.in a Extraordinary plenary session to debate the proposal from eight members of the conservative wing to issue one institutional statement against the future amnesty law from which promoters and participants in the ‘processes’ will benefit.
The Interim President of the Council, Vicente Guilarteconvenes this extraordinary meeting after eight of the sixteen members asked him to do so on November 1 study, vote and issue an institutional statement expressing the body’s “intense concern and desolation” over the amnesty law that the PSOE is finalizing together with the ERC and Junts, in the context of the negotiations on the inauguration of Pedro Sánchez as President of the Government.
In order for the institutional declaration to proceed, the votes of at least 9 members are necessary. When you start, you have the approval of the eight signatory members of the conservative wing and, predictably, with the refusal of the six members of the progressive sector. The unknown then just rest two members also identified with the conservative bloc: Guilarte himself and member Wenceslao Olea who, according to some voices, could choose to abstain.

CGPJ sources claim that the progressives’ refusal would be a fact blockbecause they believe it is a political statement and not an institutional statement. Likewise, they emphasize that said members understand that It’s not about the right time either. ever since there is no law on the table.
The same sources emphasize that there is no precedent for requesting such a declaration without a bill having been introduced. They assure that the CPGJ has only spoken so far when it had already registered a text in Congress. And besides, remember that The Council only has the power to prepare reports on draft laws and has no control over the initiatives and pacts of the parliamentary groups.
There are voices from the progressive sector who believe that its six members nThey would not even be allowed to appear at the extraordinary plenary session because they believe that the CGPJ does not have the power to make an institutional statement without there being a text on which it can decide. If so, there is insufficient quorum for the meeting to take place.
