The municipal government of Barcelona has approved a suspension of the admission of prior communications to initiate activities for the installation and expansion of the use of tourist dwellings (HUT) throughout the city.

The government of Mayor Ada Colau has explained that "she wants to avoid the possible impact on the regulation of tourist flats that the new Tourism Regulation Decree may have, which the Generalitat will approve soon and that will create the rental of rooms as a new type of accommodation tourist".

The objective of this "preventive decision" is to ensure that the current number of tourist apartments, which is 9,591, cannot grow.
