Parliamentary plenary.

PNV and EH Bildu have confirmed that they have made the first contacts to negotiate the Basque demandsfor public jobs. Next Thursday, 31 May, the deadline for tabling amendments to the proposals for the new Public Employment Act in Parliament ends. Both parties have advanced that they will table amendments to strengthen the legal certainty of the Basque Country.

There are two proposalsin Parliament for a Public Employment Act to shield the demands of the Basque Country in public employment offers: one of the PNV and one of EH Bildu.

The PNVhas announced that it will table an amendment to its text and has explained that they will sit down with all parties "willing to negotiate honestly" and have confirmed that they have had the first contacts to start a dialogue with EH Bildu .

The jeltzales believe that, once the phase of the paper has been opened, it is' a good time to analyse the texts on the table and to explore ways to reach agreements'.Ithas committed itself to a 'flexible and constructive attitude', which it has demanded of the other actors.

However, they do not want to "generate excessive expectations" because they believe that the main political forces have so far held "divergent positions."

On the other hand, EH Bilduhas explained that he will also table amendments to parliamentary texts to "enrich the proposals for legislation" and that he "welcomes" the PNV's decision to "explore the possibility of reaching an agreement with the sovereign left" on this law. 

However, the left-wing coalition believes that "consensus on this issue is essential, not only between EH Bildu and the PNV, but also with the PSE-EE. "It has expressed its willingness to" work with a firm commitment "to" create conditions to stop the legal, political and media outburst. "

EH Bildu has so far denounced the refusal of PNV and PSE-EE to negotiate with them on Basque profiles. This week, the PSE-EE leader, Eneko Andueza , has stated that he finds it "very difficult to reach an agreement with the PNV", although he has been willing to sit down.
