Requesting in a report The extinction of the Francisco Franco Foundation for the violation of the democratic memory legislation, to ensure that her goals are contrary to the general interest and ‘apology of Franco’. The jury members will have the final say.
He Government of Spain A report has been completed to exhibition from the Francisco Franco Foundation When applying Democratic memory legislationBy ensuring that this entity makes it “Exchange from Franco”The victims believe and encourage hate.
The process of asking the extinction of the Francisco Franco Foundation started a year ago, with the start of the procedures by the Ministry of Culture, whose state protection of the foundations depends on.
Subsequently, the Ministry of Territorial Policy and the Democratic memory had to draw up a report to justify this request for extinction for breaching democratic memory legislation.
The government offers testimonials from victims
The report has just been completed and sent to the Ministry of Culture, according to government sources, which are limited to saying that it is a very complete text with testimonies of victims of Franco and his relatives.
However, the government promotes some details of its argument in a parliamentary reaction that is sent in writing to ERC, where it ensures that the activity of the Francisco Franco Foundation and its goals are contrary to the general interest and “apology of Franco”.
Moreover, the executive power believes that this foundation despises and humiliates the victims and encourages hatred or violence against them directly or indirectly.
That is why the government supports the need to ask the court for the extinction of the Francisco Franco Foundation and, moreover, argues for its activities for the time being until the judgment is given.
Justice will have the last word
He Ministry of Culture It is the charged with the judicial to request the extinction From the Francisco Foundation, but first you must have a report of the general advocacy of the state.
The prediction is that the request for extinction to the court will arrive this year, according to the Minister of Territorial Policy and the Democratic memory, Ángel Víctor Torres, during a control session to the government held in the congress last March.
The judges will have the final say, but the Francisco Franco Foundation already predicted a “hard fight before the court” a year ago and said that the government’s claim to end this entity is contrary to the Constitution.
At the same time, the PSOE presented a legal reform to dissolve those associations that make the apology from Franco to eliminate the possibility that the Francisco Franco Foundation will be an association.
This legal reform has been completely transformed by the PP with its changes to the Senate, but the predictable is that the text returns to the plenary meeting of the congress and that it has been definitively approved in its original version.
