The agreement, reached by PSC-Units, Junts, ERC, Comuns, and CUP, aims to clarify reprimands based on the severity of the actions and define the roles of the committee on the status of the MP and the Parliament's Bureau in these matters.
The inclusion of this code of conduct within the parliamentary rules is intended to shield potential sanctions from future judicial appeals, providing greater legal certainty.
This reform follows shortly after the Catalan chamber publicly reprimanded Aliança Catalana leader Sílvia Orriols and Vox parliamentary spokesperson Joan Garriga for violating the existing code of conduct.
