Automatic summary, not yet reviewed
- The bill would extend by four years, until May 15, 2028, the suspension of evictions from primary homes of vulnerable groups. To do so, it amends Article 1.1 of Law 1/2013, which limited the measure to fifteen years from its entry into force.
- The bill would enter into force on the same day it is published in the Official State Gazette (Boletín Oficial del Estado).
- The bill relies on the State's exclusive authority over commercial and procedural legislation, civil legislation, the basic rules on credit, banking and insurance, and general economic planning.
Who it affects
- Vulnerable families with mortgage debt: Could avoid eviction from their primary home if they are in situations of special vulnerability and meet the economic circumstances set out in Law 1/2013.
- Mortgage creditors: Would not be able to carry out the eviction from the primary home of people in situations of special vulnerability.
