Asks the Executive to say whether it rules out freezing pensions and lowering the salaries of officials

The Popular Parliamentary Group has asked the Government, with a battery of initiatives in Congress, if it plans to send Brussels a correction of its forecasts after the last report published by the Bank of Spain last week. He also asks if he rules out freezing pensions and lowering the salaries of officials.

Specifically, the GPP recalls that said report significantly worsens the forecasts for Spain and discards the less negative scenario that it originally raised. For this reason, the GPP deputy spokesman Mario Garcés, the GPP budget spokesman, Víctor Píriz, and the deputy Miguel Ángel Paniagua, ask the Government:

– Does the Government plan to send any update and / or change to the 20/21 Budget Plan to Brussels, taking into account both the updated Bank of Spain forecasts and the different scenarios proposed by AIREF?

– Is the Government of Spain considering developing a new macroprudential scenario in order to have alternative solutions planned in view of a worsening of the scenarios that the Government itself raised in its forecasts sent to the European Commission?

– Does the Government consider that the unemployment data provided by this report will have a significant and significant impact on the public accounts of this country in sufficient volume to have to correct its forecasts of expenses and income? Do you not consider that the increase in unemployment benefits by themselves will have such a significant impact that the forecast of expenses will be affected upwards? How do you plan to finance these increases in expenses?

– Like the last government of the PSOE of this country, can we expect a freezing of the pensions of the Spanish and a drop in the salary of the officials in the coming months or does the Government of Spain absolutely rule this out?

– Given the fiscal proposal of one of the two Government partners that raises an additional 80,000 million euros, does the Ministry of Finance understand that there is room in the family and business income of this country to obtain those 80,000 million euros based on to blades and tax increases? Do you plan to take that amount only from the "wealthy"?

– On what reports are you based to consider that without touching the middle class of this country you can obtain these tax increases?

– Does the government consider that indirect taxes that could rise are never paid by the middle class?
