Previous decrees addressing the housing crisis in Spain were rejected by the parliament. This situation led Prime Minister Sanchez to decide on early elections.
Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez put this issue on the main agenda at the regular weekly meeting of the Council of Ministers, just one day after the early general election announcement he announced because the steps taken regarding the country's housing problem were not approved by the parliament.
Spanish Prime Minister Sanchez announced yesterday that he decided to call early elections after the decrees containing a solution to the housing crisis were rejected in the parliament.
Making a statement to the press at the Prime Ministry's residence, Moncloa, regarding the two decrees newly adopted by the Council of Ministers, Sanchez emphasized that the government has the obligation to continue to govern the country until the end of its term.
“HOUSING CRISIS IS A HUMAN ISSUE, NOT AN IDEOLOGICAL ISSUE”
Sanchez said, "If the majority in the parliament turns its back on the people, I believe that the people should elect their representatives in the parliament in a new general election. Until this happens, the government should continue its legislative activities. We will do our best to defend the people." he said.
Stating that the two newly adopted decrees preserve the essence of those rejected in the parliament last week, Sanchez said, "The housing crisis is not an ideological but a humanitarian issue." he said.
WHAT IS IN THE 21-TITLE DECISION?
Sanchez underlined that they will not allow the incident experienced by 87-year-old Mari Carmen, who was forcibly removed from her home on September 23, to be repeated in Spain again, and stated that the two decrees adopted by the Council of Ministers today consist of 21 headings, among which "facilitating access to affordable rental housing and home ownership, providing tax deductions and incentives for new homeowners".
The two decrees in question, as in the previous ones, included measures such as banning mandatory evictions from homes until 2030, extending rental agreements until December 31, 2028, regulating tourist and seasonal rentals, and restricting the purchase of housing by risky real estate investment companies called "vulture funds".
Sanchez also announced that a financing line worth 10 billion euros has been created to provide interest-free loans of up to 50 thousand euros to those who want to own a home for the first time, calling it "a great innovation".
CALLED TO APPROVE DECISIONS “IN THE NAME OF HUMANITY”
Calling on the members of the Standing Committee in the parliament, which was dissolved due to early general elections to be held on November 29 in Spain, to approve the decrees "in the name of humanity", Sanchez stated that these measures alone cannot solve the housing problem, and that there are similar problems in many European countries.
