The Spanish Government has taken a step towards the dissolution of the Francisco Franco Foundation. In particular, this Friday it informed the Spanish Foundation that it has initiated proceedings to request its dissolution on the grounds of advocacy of Francoism, humiliation of the victims and activities that have no purpose of general interest.
The procedures for requesting the closure of the Foundation were initiated by the Spanish Government in June last year, when it began to collect information through the Ministry of Culture.
The Ministry of Culture requested reports from the Register of Foundations and the State Secretariat for Democratic Memory on the understanding that the Spanish Government does not comply with the law on foundations and the law on democratic memory.
After receiving these reports, the Ministry of Culture has taken a further step by announcing that it has called for the dissolution of the foundation.
The Francisco Franco Foundation now has 10 working days to appeal the decision of the Ministry of Culture.
Apology of Francoism and humiliation of the victims
In a resolution of 37 pages, the Ministry explains the reasons for its dissolution: the apology of Francoism, the humiliation of victims and the absence of any purpose of general interest, and the incitement, directly or indirectly, to hatred or violence.
Precautionary measures
Sources from the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Territorial Policy and Memoria Democrática have added that they have collected and presented "sufficient and relevant" evidence to ensure that the judge in charge of the proceedings "has no choice but to dissolve" the organization.
They shall also request precautionary measures to limit or suspend the activity of the foundation until the final decision of the judge.
