The Basque Parliament will resume its usual activities this Thursday with the celebration of the first ordinary plenary session of the 13th parliamentary term. The Chamber has been active since May, but has not held debates since the “superplenary session” in February of the previous term. After today’s plenary session, the Vitoria-Gasteiz parliament will hold its first government control session tomorrow, Friday.
Today’s debate will serve that purpose feel the pulse of the ability to reach agreement between the groups, and precisely, it will start on the right track after the “triple agreement” reached between PNV, PSE-EE and EH Bildu on Osakidetza.
The plenary session starts at 10:00 09:30 am With the election of the three senators with autonomous appointments – Estefanía Beltrán de Heredia (PNV), Idurre Bideguren (EH Bildu) and Alfonso Gil (PSE-EE) will repeat their office – the resolution of the Incompatibility Commission on six socialist parliamentarians and the designation of the members of the Board of Directors of Gogora.
Once the procedures are completed, Osakidetza will focus the debate, with the aforementioned pact between the three forces. Jeltzales, sovereigntists and socialists have agreed on a parliamentary initiative that urges the Basque Government’s Ministry of Health to “complete the consolidation processes” and “review” the Basque Government model. Public employment offers of Osakidetza. The initiative was approved at the request of a non-legal proposal from the sovereigntist coalition on the same issue.
In addition, another non-bill, presented by government partners PNV and PSE-EE, will be discussed in connection with the events that took place in Venezuela after the elections of July 28. Both groups express their “concern about the growing number of arbitrary arrests and the continued intimidation of the opposition”. Therefore, they ask the Maduro government to “immediately stop” them and publish all the election data. In the same way, they urge the Basque, Spanish and European leaders to continue supporting “democracy and peace” in the Latin American country. In their proposal, Jeltzales and the Socialists make no mention of recognizing Edmundo González as elected president.
The PP and EH Bildu have tabled amendments to this initiative in its entirety, although given the distribution of majorities (PNV and PSE-EE have an absolute majority) it shows no signs of success.
In addition, there are non-legal proposals from the Abertzale coalition and Sumar regarding streamlining the reporting of stress areasThe Chamber is requested to urge the Basque Government to deal with the matter through the procedure emergency route the requests for a problem area (Errenteria and Zumaia have already requested this) to implement the corresponding measures as soon as possible in order to limit rental prices.
Finally, the PP also presented another initiative regarding the implementation in Euskadi of a single EBAU for the entire Spanish state.
Outside the Chamber, a meeting was organised by the unions Ertzaintza ErNE, Esan and Sipe to denounce the lack of negotiations, “after four months of the new government.”
