It is possible that the law will come back into force if the Spanish government submits any labor-related measure to the Council of Ministers or the Congress of Deputies, as requested by several Basque social actors.
The prevalence of Basque agreements over state and sectoral agreements, -as long as they are more favorable to workers-, agreed between PNV and the PSOE in the investiture agreement, is decreasing after the Royal Decree of the General Assembly was rejected in the Cortes on Wednesday. Generals. payment, to which it belonged. This causes the measurement to enter a waiting phase.
The unemployment benefit decision is the only one of the three first presented by the Spanish government which was not ratified during the extraordinary plenary meeting. It was Podemos that finally, with votes against, destroyed the text of Yolanda Díaz’s Ministry. PP, Vox and UPN also rejected it.
However, it is possible that the law will come back into force if the Spanish government submits any labor-related measure to the Council of Ministers or the Congress of Deputies, as requested by several Basque social actors.
In this sense, the representative is jeltzale Idoia SagastizabalAnticipating that this could happen, he assured during his speech before the vote that this measure might not remain in force, but stated that in any case it will be part of the legislation “as soon as possible”.

“In addition, this decree entailed an unacceptable reduction in contributions of people who received unemployment benefits from the age of 52 (reduction from 125% to 105%),” the national national center denounced in a note.
Furthermore, ELA has recalled that achieving priority for its own agreements “is a consequence of years of struggle and strikes by Basque workers” and has therefore demanded that PNV and EH Bildu remain “an essential element” in their negotiations with the Spanish government.
