PSOE and Sumar are meeting today to take steps to give new impetus to the legislature following the Cerdán case
Sumar's intention is to take a "180 degree turn" and stress that this crisis must serve to accelerate the main objectives of the government program and deliver a clear message against corruption, thereby reviving the progressive foundations following the impact of the Cerdán case.

PSOE and Sumar will meet in the follow-up committee to the coalition government pact between PSOE and Sumar in the face of the crisis caused by thealleged corruptioncase that has splattered the 'number three' of the socialists Santos Cerdán.
The meeting will take place in the Congress of Deputies and will be attended by representatives of both parties: the Vice-President of the Government and Minister of Finance, María Jesús Montero; the Minister of the Presidency, Justice and Relations with the Courts, Félix Bolaños; and the Minister of Culture and Spokesperson for the Summary, Ernest Urtasun.
Neither the President of the Spanish Government, Pedro Sánchez, nor the Second Vice-President, Yolanda Díaz, will take part in this meeting, which took place in mid-June at the Palacio de la Moncloa, when they learned of the report of the Central Operational Unit of the Civil Guard (UCO) against Cerdán and the Chief Executive supported the investiture in the round with the partners.
The minority partner's intention is to take a "180 degree turn" so that the PSOE can restore confidence because, as Sintre pointed out, after Cerdán's alleged involvement, trust was broken as he was placed in pre-trial detention.
For example, in the social sphere, Sintre has called for the extension of activities which, he has pointed out, were blocked bythe Socialist Party, such as the implementation of a growth benefit, the improvement of the financing of dependency, the activation of paid leave for care, the implementation of initiatives to improve access to housing and the advancement of labour rights, among others.
In addition, Sintre and all the other parties have compiled proposals in the section on democratic regeneration, such as calling for the creation ofa state anti-corruption agency to increase penalties for corruption-related offences or to prohibit companies convicted of corruption from seeking awards from the public administration.
The minority member of the coalition believes that this crisis should serve to accelerate the main flags of the government program and deliver a clear message against corruption to stimulate the progressive foundations following the impact of the Cerdán case.
