The Constitutional Court has closed in its plenary session this week one of the most controversial chapters of the procés and the illegal referendum of 1-O. The guarantee body endorses the decree-law of the Government to temporarily control electronic communications in situations that could affect national security.
The ruling dismisses an appeal of unconstitutionality filed by the Parliament of Catalonia against several precepts of a royal decree approved by the Government in 2019. The decree law in question left the door open for the state administration to fully assume the management of electronic communications.
