The CNMC criticizes that Ribera establishes by law the structure of the super energy regulator and asks for more internal freedom. The CNMC report has echoed the historic crusade of the Senior Overseer of the Kingdom for its lack of resources.

Although they recognize that the CNE draft partially improves this aspect, they stress that the problem is not resolved. They demand, therefore, increasing the financial and budgetary autonomy of the future regulator and ask that the Energy Commission be able to participate, hand in hand with the Executive.
