Congress advances on the mutualist champion but occurs until summer to process it

Mutualist self -employed will have to Wait for several weeks To see how the Congress of Deputies begins to process the norm with which the price regime will be clarified by which They can opt for their retirement through the one known as the Reta catwalk. After a March installed in the blockade, parliamentary groups are advancing with the PSOE the activation parliamentary of this law that affects some 100,000 professionals who until now were governed by their private mutualities, but, in a part of the cases, they want to do it through social security contributions.

Parliamentary sources suggest that bebefore the current session end ends When the bill see the light in the lower house. The months of July and August are unusual in Congress during the summer, so the rule would be admitted to process over the next two months, these sources point out. Although It would be just the starting point to a process that can extend several months until its final approval.

The affected freelancers have noticed How this process has been delayed since the year began. The sector of mutualities and professionals who are part of them have already verified that February was not the month for the law to initiate its parliamentary tour, nor in March. The PSOE, the party that put on the table its proposal of law to regulate the passage to the challenge voluntarily, intends to take the norm for the plenary to take it into consideration Only when you have at least reinforced supportaccording to parliamentary sources to ABC. That is, so that the plenary does not reject that first step to go to the entire usual process.

The Socialist Parliamentary Group held a meeting with those responsible for the Spanish Advocacy shortly before the Holy Week in which they were assured to be committed to the processing of the law with maximum urgency. So much so, that they explained to the president of the Spanish law, Salvador González, and the president of the Council of Social Security, Ignacio Gallly, who is likely that the proposal of law registered at the end of last year Start processed next May. For the norm to go ahead, more if you are not necessary. Then the amendments could reach the totality or partial and development until their final validation.

More than 60,000 pending lawyers

Meanwhile, those affected by this situation see the weeks spend without the courts at least eating to discuss the possibility of a regime change in their working life. These are 60,000 lawyers, But also doctors or architects, They want to know the conditions to quote on Social Security, such as self -employed, and not through their mutual professionals, as they had been doing so far.

The most spiny issues focus on who could change their regime and under what requirements. In principle, the Ministry of Social Security, directed by Elma Sáiz, set that they could request the change to the challenge the mutualists who were found active as of December 31, 2022. In addition, the proposition of the law that is in Congress has improved the equation of change of the funds accumulated in the mutuality for months of contribution in the recapture. While the first text set a corrective coefficient of 0.77, the last proposal opens a fork from a minimum of 0.68 to a maximum of 0.87.

However, other restrictions are maintained that feed the rejection of mutualist associations: They could access the tall mutualists until 2013; Those who do not have 15 years quoted in any social security regime; and those who do not have the status of a pensioner in charge of any public regime or mutuality. The system involves a complex change, since mutuals consider that their system is attractive, while self -employed associations hope it does not involve a greater deficit of their regime while social security tries to make balances before some accounts already tensioned.
