No restrictions on rights: Euskalgintza's response to the High Court of Justice of the Basque Country

  • This is the news of 10 days ago: The High Court of Justice of the Basque Country (TSJPV) has considered the petition of the Basque Country to be an agent of the Municipal Police in the trial for a public employment claim in Irun discriminatory. In order to denounce what this judgment entails, the Council of Euskalgintza convenes a concentration for tomorrow Saturday, 22 May, in the gardens of Albia in Bilbao, before the TSJPV, at 11.00 a.m.

Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

The concentration slogans shall be as follows: In favor of living in Basque / Batuz / No rights cuts.

The President-in-Office of the Council, Paul Bilbao, stated the previous day firmly the reason for this call: "The possibilities that current legislation ceases to provide to the courts are being closed through court judgments. That is, the courts have become active actors in linguistic policies, what the law does not do is being built through jurisprudence".

The lawyer Iñigo Urrutia has defended in an interview with Berria the same opinion as the other parties. "It's serious. It is up to judges to apply the rules of the legislature and the decrees of the executive. You can interpret them, but can you change them? That is not permitted. That is to enter into the functions of the legislature, to pervert the separation of powers. Unfortunately, No. 3 of the Superior Court of Justice of Navarra. The section has become popular in recent times, after the rejection of restrictive measures against COVID-19, and it seems they want to put their own criteria above health criteria and linguistic criteria."

The Council's appeal has been received by many actors who have acceded to it. Many response needs have been observed. In the words of Paul Bilbao "This kind of sentence is nothing more than a hindrance in the process of recovering the language and, therefore, we have to answer it from the unit. It is not fair that the effort that the community has made and is making to live in Basque is attempted to camouflage through the courts; it is not fair or legitimate (...) The time has come to respond all together".

Appeal to Euskalgintza apolítica
