Congress of Deputies

It is the most relevant novelty that the Government will introduce in the reform of the
Citizen Security Law

the very last hour of the night

In addition, uncommunicated
protests in basic service areas
and their surroundings will cease to be very serious infractions to become serious.

Ana Vázquez
, deputy of the Popular Party.

, the platform made up of National Police and Civil Guard agents of all their scales and categories, will once again organize the protests.
