A decade after it came into force, the Constitutional Court (TC) has annulled two articles of the Catalan law from 2015 that prevents companies from cutting off basic supplies such as electricity and gas to vulnerable consumers. In its justification, the magistrates point out that the regulation is incompatible with the state system of protection in cases of non-payment due to necessity and, therefore, declares that Parliament has overstepped its authority and invaded competencies. The ruling does not, for now, mean immediate cuts, as there is a moratorium in force at the Spanish level that prevents these basic services from being cut off until December 31.
