In particular, it is scheduled at 09:00 with EH Bildu, at 11:00 with Elkarrekin Podemos-IU and at 1:00 PM with PP+Cs. All competitions are held in Lakua.
The first round of budget negotiations took place last Wednesday, the 9th, after which the adviser stressed that none of the three parliamentary groups have set “red lines” to continue work on a possible deal. Azpiazu had already warned before the meetings that there will be no structural changes to the accounts.
For his part, EH Bildu presented a proposal proposing to change the allocation of 450 million Basque budgets for 2023 in order to “correct situations of deterioration of public services, especially in Osakidetza, the high price of housing, the energy crisis, the serious situation of the primary sector and the loss of roots of strategic companies. As explained by Coalition spokeswoman Maddalen Iriarte, they gave the counselor a “common sense” proposal to initiate “structural changes” as it is not possible to achieve “palliative measures alone”.

After meeting with Azpiazu, the popular group’s spokesman Carlos Iturgaiz assured that his group is not drawing “red lines”, although he did say that “to reach an agreement with PP+Cs you have to move in the direction” of regional PP governments such as those of Galicia, Andalusia and Madrid, which cut taxes to “give tax relief to the citizens”.
