Judicial blow to Navarra Sumari for eliminating bilingualism on the social networks of the City of Pamplona
- The Administrative Tribunal of Navarra gave the right to the appeal presented by EH Bildu after the implementation by Navarra Sum of profiles in Spanish and Basque in the social networks of the City of Pamplona. He has described the distinction between Castilian and Euskera as "contrary to law".
The Administrative Tribunal of Navarra gave the right to the appeal presented by the municipal group of EH Bildu after the implementation of profiles in Spanish and Basque in the social networks of the City of Pamplona. Thus, it has suspended the decision to separate both languages and change the institutional profile of Pamplona, which went from being the only bilingual support to two different media, one in Spanish and the other in Basque, as it considered it "contrary to the law".
The municipal government team argued that the measure was in accordance with the current law, and the court notes that the municipality has "the obligation to use Spanish and Euskera on an equal footing when addressing citizenship and, especially, in the corporate image".
In its resolution it refers to the ordinance prior to the Basque Country – in force when bilingualism was eliminated on social networks – but also to the one in force – adopted on 14 April by Navarre Suma and the PSN – so it is likely that this is not the last blow the coalition receives for linguistic issues.
In fact, in analysing the appeal of EH Bildu, he mentioned a judgment of the Superior Court of Justice of Navarra which concluded in 2002 the debate on the interpretations of the bilingual term in a judgment on the Sanfermines cartel: "In the corporate image of the City Hall, bilingualism is not achieved with two differentiated programs in Spanish and Basque, but with a single bilingual program."
Single support
In its opinion, the Administrative Court has established that “there is no legal or regulatory mandate to prevent a mixed-area administration from offering a bilingual corporate image, and has recalled that the previous article 12 of the Basque ordinance stated that: “The bilingual term necessarily means that the contents are offered in a single medium or unit.”
The Minister of Education has ruled out that the decision to separate the two languages into the networks is included in the exception that the ordinance itself gathers (that the content has a volume that prevents it) because "there was no technical reason that would make it impossible, it was feasible, because it was doing so until then".
Regarding social networks, the judicial resolution indicates that it is a web "of municipal ownership, blogs, networks, apps and the like" and in the case of the websites, the possibility of choosing the language you want to browse from the home page will be offered.
It cannot be ruled out, taking into account the criteria that have been established in this matter, that the arguments can be repeated in other similar remedies that have been presented in the legislature in relation to other decisions of Navarre Suma.
