Overview
- The four groups registered a proposición de ley in the Catalan Parliament asking Spain’s Congress to void all legal effects of the decrees issued by Felipe V between 1707 and 1716.
- Sponsors request a single-reading procedure in the Parlament, after which the text would be sent to the lower house for a definitive vote if approved.
- The proposed repeal covers the 1707 decree affecting Aragon and Valencia, the 1715 decree for Mallorca, and the 1716 decree for Catalonia.
- The text presents the move as historical and institutional redress and instructs the Government to formally notify affected parliaments and autonomous governments while considering a commemorative declaration.
- The Associació de Juristes Valencians backed the filing as its president urged PSC and PPC support, as related initiatives advance unevenly in Aragón and the Valencian Corts and Sumar’s similar national bill remains stalled.
