Unions UGT and CC. oh. They have convened their committee and confederal council, respectively, for this Wednesday to analyze the latest proposal from the Spanish Government on the pension reform to which they will foreseeably give their support.

In addition, the Minister of Inclusion and Social Security, Jose Luis Escrivawill appear today at the Toledo Pact Commission of the Congress of Deputies to explain the pension reform decree law that will have to be validated shortly in plenary session.

UGT will celebrate at 11:00 a.m. an extraordinary confederal committee to “analyze and approve if appropriate” the proposed agreement to reform the Pensions Law, while CC. oo. his confederal council meets at the same time.

The Spanish Executive met on Monday with the employers – who confirmed their rejection of the reform – and the unions that demanded a series of improvements that the Ministry of Inclusion was to send them on Tuesday.

Among the pending fringes to give definitive support to this form, are issues related to minimum pensions or the scope of the solidarity quota.

The president of the CEOE employers’ association, Antonio Garamendihas ensured that Minister Escrivá “is not telling the truth” when he affirms that the employers have not presented an alternative proposal to the reform project.

Garamendi has attacked the Executive reform proposal for being “a brutal tax against talent” and has also criticized that the debate has been “stolen” because Inclusion has not presented the economic report on the impact of the reform.

“The reality is that as of today we do not have economic memory. It is very difficult to talk about anything if we do not have the data,” the leader of the businessmen has settled, for whom “it is not acceptable” to be informed of the proposal at “last minute” to say that “they are lentils”that is, it can only be accepted.

For her part, the First Vice President of the Spanish Government and Minister of Economic Affairs, Nadia Calvinohas said from Brussels that he expects the European Commission to make the payment to Spain of the third tranche of 6000 million euros from the EU anti-crisis fund “in the next fortnight”, while specifying that the Executive is already preparing the request of the next leg, from €10 billionwhich is linked to 58 milestones -among them the pension reform-.
