The Foral Community of Navarra is on the verge of having a new Law on Symbols. Three years after the Uxue Barkos Government approved the repeal of the previous rule, Parliament will vote on Thursday on Navarre’s proposal Sum this summer, which is about to be seen after a complicated procedure.

However, the text is by no means what the right originally wanted, as it designed a strict sanction regime – sanctions of up to EUR 150,000 against city councils that were once again violating the law of symbols – and it had a marked identity in many articles – which envisaged honouring the flag in towns and schools. This prompted PSN, Geroa Bai, EH Bildu, Podemos and I-E to cut the content of the bill in the committee to avoid a "flag war."

Being a very decaffeinated law, everything points out that the PSN will vote in favour and that the text will see the light. The Chivite party believes that the adoption of the law can serve to close the debate on the symbols: the right, since the repeal of the law of 2003, is announcing – without much success – the disappearance of the flag of Navarre and, as a protest against it, also called a demonstration against the government of four.

The law that can now be passed, even though it is a long way from the initial plans of the right, can really be taken forward and does not take into account ikurrina. The other parties, for their part, will be able to oppose it because it does not dare to regulate the use of ikurrina, but at least the new law does not provide for fines for placing ikurrina. In spite of everything, the tone that will prevail in the debate on Thursday will demonstrate what Navarre’s intention is really to sum up on this issue, if you really have a new Symbols Law or have a theme that could bother the government of Chivite.
