D'Anjou will begin his round of budget meetings with opposition parties on Monday
According to the Councillor, the Basque Government will attend this round with a "clear will" to "listen" and "if possible" to "expand" the Draft Budget.
Finance and Finance Advisor Noël D'Anjou will begin his round of contacts with the opposition on Monday to exchange proposals on the 2026 budget.
This Monday he will meet with representatives of EH Bildu, PP and Sintre, all opposition groups except Vox, whom the government has excluded from these negotiations.
According to the Councillor, the Basque Government will attend the meetings witha "clear will "to" listen "and" if possible "to the proposals on the Budget Bill. The parties that make up the Government, PNV and PSE, have a majority in Parliament and do not need the votes of the opposition.
The Chief Executive urged the opposition to have "broad vision"and to avoid "tacticism" in the negotiations.
No opposition group supported public accounts last year.
This year, as D'Anjou himself has acknowledged, the messages received from the opposition during the hearings of the Councillors in Parliament to explain the main items of the departments suggest that there may be 'even more difficulties' in reaching agreements.
