Overview
- The TSJPV annulled multiple provisions of the Basque Government’s resolution on the use of official languages in public administration.
- It removed the obligation that public-facing contractors meet the same Basque-language conditions required of the Administration.
- The ruling specifically curtails euskera proficiency demands for subcontractors working under public contracts.
- LAB condemned the judges for doing “linguistic politics” against Basque, while CCOO welcomed the rollback of language profiles for public subcontractors.
- ELA escalated the union dispute by likening CCOO to Manos Limpias and noting CCOO promoted the appeal that led to the ruling.
