It is not only important in political terms, but also for the purposes of what Article 25.4 of the chamber's regulations states: that MPs appearing in court for "crimes linked to corruption" have to be suspended from their rights and duties immediately by the parliamentary bureau. Borràs has said from the outset that she does not feel "questioned" by this article because she has not committed any crimes, but following the Prosecutor's Office's indictment <a href="https://en.ara.cat/politics/laura-borras-case-prosecution-prison-speaker-ban-institution-catalan-letters-misfeasance-forgery-ilc_1_4434118.html">this Thursday</a> there are more elements which can be analysed: it is now known what crimes the public prosecutor is accusing her of (malfeasance and forgery) the Parliamentary bureau will have to determine whether they are linked to corruption to decide on Borràs's future.</p>]]></description>
