UPN initiates proceedings for the repeal of the Fourth Transitional Provision
The President of UPN, Cristina Ibarrola, has presented to the Navarre Parliament a bill calling for the reform of the Constitution and the deletion of this provision.
UPN President Cristina Ibarrola has announced that her party has registered a bill in the Navarre Parliament to push for reform of the Spanish Constitution in the Cortes Generales to repeal the Fourth Transitional Provision.
The aim of the initiative is for the Navarre Parliament to give its opinion on an issue which UPN considers to be essential for the futureof the Foral Community , since if the proposal is approved, it will be forwarded to the Bureau of the Congress of Deputies for processing and discussion.
Ibarrola argues that the subsistence of this provision, almost 48 years after the adoption of the1978 Constitution, lacks legal and political justification, since, in his view, it is a measure designed for a certain historical context already outdated.
In this regard, it stresses that the institutional framework of Navarre is fully established through its own foral regime, recognized in the Constitution and developed through the Organic Law on the Reintegration and Improvement of the Foral Regime of Navarre (LORAFNA).
It also points out that the Fourth Transitional Provision is a peculiarity that affects only Navarre and has no parallel throughout the autonomous system. It warns that its exceptional nature implies an element of institutional uncertainty incompatible with a stable framework of self-government.
Finally, Ibarrola assures that the repeal of this provision does not call into question the self-government and competences of Navarre, but seeks to strengthen the institutional stability of the foral regime and to remove from the Constitution a provision that respondsto historical circumstances that have been exceeded .
