D'Anjou has concluded the budget negotiations without reaching an agreement
The Chief Executive has stressed that there has been "a lack of will to reach real consensus," although in many cases "diagnoses have coincided." However, he has pledged to continue talking "to pursue policies that improve life."
The Finance and Finance Adviser, Noël d'Anjou, has appeared before the media to announce that he is closing the negotiations on the Basque Government's budgets for next year. The coalition government, consisting of PNV and PSE-EE, has not reached "additional agreements" with other political forces.
The Councillor has stated that, after two meetings with each parliamentary group, there has been "no willingness to reach real consensus", even though "diagnoses often coincide".
Counsel D 'Anjou has appeared before the media after the Summaries, EH Bildu and PP announced that they will submit an amendment to the entire draft budget, although the coalition government will have no problem approving the budgets, since in the Basque Parliament the PNV and the PSE-EE have an absolute majority.
In the Councillor's words, this round of negotiations has been conducted with the aim of reaching "additional agreements" in the belief that "greater support strengthens the project and gives stability to the institutions." He has explained that "they have reached out, offered dialogue and sought meeting points," but has stated that "politics cannot be limited to short-term manoeuvres."
Therefore, although they have not reached an additional agreement, they will continue to do so, maintaining their "commitment to the future of the Basque Country".
Although it has concluded the negotiations, it has specified that the Government is committed to continuing dialogue to "pursue policies that improve life".
