The Euskaltzales that we have signed this questionnaire concern us because the use of Euskera in general is very low. The rights we have as Euskaldunes in many important aspects of the administration are repeatedly violated in the private sphere. Go to the post office and do it in Spanish; go to the police station or to the palace of justice and the same; the scarce supply in Basque of the media in front of the Spanish; the marginalization of the Basque in communications of all kinds at the time of confinement; the scarce use of the language also in the Parliament of Vitoria...

After centuries of marginalisation, we need resolute and determined measures, and electoral promises should not remain mere promises.

Given the imminence of the votes, we have decided to call the parties to know their sensitivity to the Basque Country, and based on the answers they have given us to the twelve questions below, to draw our conclusions.

Before you go to vote, you will be aware of the assessment of the replies received.

1. Do you worry, in general, because the use of Euskera is very low in our society?

2nd Regarding non-university teaching, do you consider it necessary to remodel the models so that the students reach a good level of Euskera at the end of the ESO? What strategy do you see as necessary for this? Would you make changes to the curriculum to include more Basque issues?

3. What do they say about the offer of vocational training in Basque?

4. With regard to public and private universities?

5. In the Local, Autonomous and State Administration, with the exception of the municipalities of UEMA, Spanish is the predominant language of use and, often, also as a service language. What measures do you propose to standardize the use of Euskera as a language of service and as a working language?

6. Would you see very well that, in order to be a candidate for elections, knowledge and use of the two official languages are compulsory? What would you be prepared to do to make the Basque language the usual language in Parliament?

7. As regards EITB, the ETB1 hearing is less than 2%. What steps do you have to take to regain the prestige and audience that ETB1 has lost? What can ETB2 do to achieve this linguistic standardisation objective? And Euskadi Radio? Do you consider the dissemination of the works of Basque creators in EiTB sufficient?

III Law on Standardization of the Basque Country, 1982. The chapter contains the following: "The Government will take measures to increase the presence of Euskera in the social media, until a progressive levelling of the use of both official languages". What measures do you propose in this direction?

8. With regard to the Euskaldunisation of the labour market, firstly, how can the administration help private companies recognise the rights of Euskaldunes?

9. What measures do you have in mind to guarantee the linguistic rights of consumers as regards the language of service and the labelling of products in shops?

10. Given that our world is becoming more and more digital, what are you planning to give real impetus to the Basque country in this area?

11. Do you think that with the competences currently held by the CAV, the normalization of the Basque Country can be carried out successfully, within a reasonable time? Do you think that the inhabitants of the CAPV, when they speak in Basque, should have the same rights as they have in Spanish?

12. Do you see the need to amend the 1982 Law on Standardization of the Basque Country?
