PSOE and United We Can have resumed negotiations at the first level on the future Housing Law on Monday after the earthquake caused by the departure of Pablo Iglesias, although tension and disagreements remain high.
Regardless of the formula to limit rents, the new front of contention is the concept of "
empty house
".
At this morning's meeting, the Socialists have put on the table a proposal for the definition of an empty house, according to which all the house that belongs to an owner with at least four houses owned and that has been unoccupied for a period of time will be considered as such. more than two years, except for justified causes of temporary unemployment.
According to socialist sources, "this definition is proposed so that the municipalities can apply the surcharge of the
Real Estate Tax
(IBI) [...] with the aim of having a greater effect on optimizing the use of the residential building park and reinforcing the instrument of the City Councils to deal with situations of unoccupied housing through taxation ".
The definition of empty housing is one of the main points of disagreement between the Ministry of Transport, Mobility and Urban Agenda, whose negotiation team is led by
David Lucas
, and UP representatives, led by
Ione Belarra
.
As with rent limits, both coincide in regulation but clash in ways.
In this case, while the PSOE is committed to mobilizing owners through IBI surcharges to bring their empty homes to the market, the
purple
formation
wants to "force" the large holders to dedicate 30% of their homes to social rent.
The other novelty in the PSOE proposal this Monday has to do with the housing stock.
The Socialists propose to
allocate 50% of the public land for social rent
, both in actions of new urbanization and in actions of reform or renovation of the urbanization, "which must be included in the legislation on territorial or urban planning".
On this occasion, David Lucas's team has also introduced a measure aimed at improving the regulation
of the eviction procedure
in vulnerable situations.
The measure is intended to "guarantee effective and rapid communication between the judicial body and the social services through a request for them to assess the situation and, where appropriate, quickly attend to people in situations of economic vulnerability and / or Social".
