The balance of parliamentary forces will allow for them before summer. Specifically, so that they can be approved by Parliament in July. It only remains for ERC, <a href="https://en.ara.cat/politics/erc-convenes-its-national-council-to-validate-salvador-illa-s-budgets_1_5737500.html">which has convened a national council for Monday</a>, to give it the go-ahead. The situation is perceived in the happy faces of some government members, especially the Minister of Economy, Alícia Romero.</p>]]></description>
