Congress Rejects Proposal for Anti-Corruption Office in Spain

The Congress of Deputies has voted against a proposal from Sumar to create an Office of Prevention of Corruption.

This marks another setback for the coalition government, following the recent rejection of a law to reduce the working week.

The rejection took place during a plenary session, with votes against coming from PP, Vox, and Junts.

Verónica Martínez Barbero, Sumar’s spokesperson, expressed disappointment, stating that the opposition’s vote against the proposal indicates their lack of commitment to tackling corruption in Spain.
