The Government will approve the budgets of the Generalitat for 2024 in an Extraordinary Council
Tomorrow, Wednesday, the Government of the Generalitat will approve the budgets for 2024 in an Extraordinary Council. This decision has been taken without waiting to conclude an agreement with the commons, as announced by the Vice-President of the Government and advisor to the Presidency, Laura Vilagrà. This measure seeks to boost the Catalan economy and improve the well-being of citizens.
Expansive and social budgets
According to Vilagrà, these budgets are the most expansive and social in the history of Catalonia. It is planned to allocate more resources to education, health and security, with the aim of improving public services and the quality of life of citizens. This includes the increase of teachers, doctors and police officers.
Parliamentary support
Currently, the budgets have the support of 66 deputies, but they still do not have a parliamentary majority to be approved in Parliament. The Government is in advanced talks with various groups to obtain broad support and be able to give the green light to the budgets. It is necessary to obtain these supports to obtain final approval.
The Hard Rock Lockdown
One of the points of disagreement between the Government and the commons is the Hard Rock macro project. The commons oppose this project and demand a moratorium. However, this issue has not been mentioned in the agreement between the Government and the PSC. The Catalan Socialists have pledged not to block political agreements that result in amendments to the budgets, as long as they do not contradict the established agreement.
In short, the Government of the Generalitat will approve the budgets for 2024 tomorrow in an Extraordinary Council. These budgets aim to boost the economy and improve the well-being of citizens. Despite having the support of 66 deputies, it is still necessary to obtain a parliamentary majority to achieve final approval. The Hard Rock lockout is one of the points of disagreement with the commons, but it has not been included in the agreement with the PSC. The budgets are considered the most expansive and social in the history of Catalonia.
