PP–Vox Present Record 2027 Aragón Budget

Large new spending for health, education and welfare is paired with tax cuts as Vox's 'prioridad nacional' is formalized for parliamentary review.

Overview

  • The regional executive formally unveiled the draft budget on Wednesday, November 4, 2026, proposing €9,594.7 million in total spending and an €8,398.1 million spending ceiling, the largest package in Aragón's records.
  • The plan raises own resources by about €1,139 million versus 2024 and directs roughly 76% of that increase to health, education and social welfare, with Health receiving €3,162 million, a near 15% rise.
  • Fiscal measures include a 0.25 percentage-point cut in regional IRPF rates for incomes below €52,500, a 99% bonification for Group II in inheritance tax, and new family deductions aimed at reducing household tax bills.
  • The budget formalizes Vox's 'prioridad nacional' as an eligibility criterion for some benefits and proposes a new regional Housing Law that boosts supply spending by about 45% while rejecting rent-price controls.
  • Next steps are debate and a vote in the Aragón legislature where PP and Vox hold a majority, making passage likely but setting up political and possible legal scrutiny over eligibility rules and housing provisions.
