Documented proposals
First home
Catalán votes separately for reducing VAT on a first newly built home from 10% to 4% and paying in instalments alongside the mortgage. Point 6 directly addresses purchase-tax relief; other provisions are not inferred.
Source and assessmentWorking week
UPN rejects imposition in the 37.5-hour bill debate and supports social dialogue. This records opposition to the proposed legal cap while preserving its support for labour agreements.
Source and assessmentPensions
Alli supports linking pensions to CPI to preserve purchasing power. Historical evidence, supplemented by support for revaluation in 2026.
Source and assessmentPublic healthcare
UPN’s 13th congress policy and statute papers (2024). UPN’s adopted Navarre healthcare policy supports continued public–private collaboration subject to quality and efficiency, rather than returning contracted services to public management. It does not endorse every privatisation.
Source and assessmentWork permits in Navarre
Full official article transcribed by the user; the hash identifies that transcription rather than downloaded HTML. UPN authors the proposal to transfer initial work-permit administration to Navarre and votes for it. The resolution includes inspection functions and requires resources and coordination with national residence authorisations.
Source and assessmentRent prices
2023 general-election manifesto (historical reference). Its 2023 general-election manifesto calls for repealing the Housing Law that provides rent caps in stressed areas. This records that repeal commitment without inventing an alternative rent-control proposal.
Source and assessmentSuspending evictions
Cristina Ibarrola’s direct statements to Europa Press on renting and private property, 29 April 2026. Ibarrola opposes preventing eviction for non-payment to protect vulnerable tenants at private owners’ expense, calling for public resources and housing instead. She supports helping those families but rejects making owners provide that protection. The report does not specify her alternative compensation arrangements or exemptions.
Source and assessmentEviction for unpaid rent
Cristina Ibarrola’s direct statements to Europa Press on renting and private property, 29 April 2026. Ibarrola supports owners recovering a rented home when tenants fail to pay and damage it, opposing measures that prevent eviction. She links this to legal certainty and public assistance for people in need. This concerns breached rental contracts, not inference from the criminal fast trial for occupation, nor a proposal for eviction without a judge.
Source and assessmentIllegal squatting
Catalán Higueras, Alberto votes for separately voted amendment 539, adding unlawful entry into a home and usurpation to fast criminal proceedings. This concerns the specific criminal route, not unpaid rent or every civil recovery procedure.
Source and assessmentBuilding new homes
Catalán supports separately voted point 5: reducing administrative burdens and coordinating national reports to shorten land and housing development from ten years to four while preserving legal certainty.
Source and assessmentHousing purchases by investment funds
Navarre parliamentary debate on restrictions on speculative purchases (2026; regional groups’ own positions). Sánchez de Muniáin opposes the proposed deeper intervention in Navarre’s housing market, including restrictions on speculative purchases in stressed areas, arguing that it reduces supply. He separately supports agreements to reuse buildings; the assessment is not based solely on a package vote.
Source and assessmentBorder controls
López Mañero calls on the national government to control borders thoroughly and combat irregular entry with all available means, while supporting orderly legal migration and reception rights.
Source and assessmentDeporting migrants without legal residence
Catalán calls for effective implementation of issued removal orders and supports agreements with countries of origin within European return policy. This concerns executing existing orders, rather than returning people without assessing their cases.
Source and assessmentDeporting convicted foreign offenders
Calls for prosecutors to seek prison sentences and court-ordered replacement by expulsion under Criminal Code article 89, rather than treating arrest as sufficient.
Source and assessmentSeeking asylum at the border
UPN statement addressed to Spain’s government in 2016 (historical reference). Esparza calls on Spain’s government to respect the Geneva Convention and rejects blanket returns of refugees to Turkey. This is a 2016 protection-safeguards statement, not a position on every current administrative return.
Source and assessmentSharing responsibility for migrant children
López Mañero says Navarre must help receive children and calls on Spain’s government for fair, proportionate distribution among all regions with sufficient resources. This records the national duty to cooperate; it does not recode UPN’s parliamentary abstention as a yes vote.
Source and assessmentRepeated petty theft
Catalán supports the repeated-theft sentencing reform and criticises its delay. It concerns repeated convictions, rather than arrests.
Source and assessmentNationality in crime statistics
UPN parliamentary group statement on statistical transparency in Navarre (2026; territorial context). López Mañero supports publishing origin and nationality statistics with population context and without stigmatising groups. She proposes quarterly publication in Navarre and cites existing national Interior Ministry data; this does not imply that all arrested people are guilty.
Source and assessmentWho chooses the judges on the judicial council
Catalán advocates restoring the pre-1985 system in which judges elected the judicial members.
Source and assessmentSpecial courts for politicians
Supports abolishing special jurisdiction for national and regional legislators on equality grounds. Historical evidence from 2016.
Source and assessmentLobbyists: who influences government
UPN parliamentary position in 2017 (historical reference). Salvador supports a Congress interest register and disclosure of meetings with interest groups, explicitly endorsing that transparency alongside support for the reform.
Source and assessmentProtecting people who report corruption
UPN’s own amendments 373 and 374 to the national whistleblower-protection bill (2017; historical reference). In their own amendments 373 and 374, Salvador and Alli propose an independent authority covering central government and protecting whistleblowers, with regional participation by agreement. This is UPN’s 2017 national proposal rather than an inference from a vote on the entire bill.
Source and assessmentAmnesty for the Catalan independence process
Rejects the 2024 amnesty. The speech’s legal objections are the party’s position.
Source and assessmentIndependence referendums
UPN’s 13th congress policy and statute papers (2024). Its 2024 principles defend Spain’s constitutional model and reject territorial separation in Catalonia and Euskadi, opposing the secession asked about.
Source and assessmentCatalonia collecting its own taxes
Catalán rejects the specific Catalan financing agreement as a trade of votes for power, distinguishing this from his defence of Navarre’s fiscal agreement and historic rights.
Source and assessmentCatalan and other languages in school
Specific Catalan school model resolution, voted on 13 September and published on 21 September 2011 (historical evidence). UPN rejected the specific motion to defend Catalonia’s school model, with Catalan as the usual teaching language and centre of gravity without excluding Spanish. The official text establishes the policy voted on and Europa Press explicitly identifies UPN’s rejection. This is historical evidence from 2011, not a current proposal for a 25% quota or a vote on a general education package.
Source and assessmentTaxes on large fortunes
2023 Navarre regional manifesto (territorial and historical evidence). Its regional manifesto proposes a 100% wealth-tax rebate in Navarre. This is regional opposition to that levy, rather than a promise to repeal the national solidarity tax.
Source and assessmentPublic or subsidised private schools
Catalán explicitly supports the specific motion to change article 109 and guarantee subsidised private places according to demand, citing parents’ freedom of choice.
Source and assessmentAbortion access
UPN’s 13th congress policy and statute papers (2024). Its adopted 2024 statutes explicitly oppose abortion; that general opposition encompasses the public access asked about.
Source and assessmentTrans law: changing legal sex
Catalán rejects the 2023 law and demands parental and professional involvement in minors’ self-definition, distinguishing that opposition from support for LGBT equality and dignity.
Source and assessmentEuthanasia
UPN’s 13th congress policy and statute papers (2024). Its 2024 statutes explicitly oppose euthanasia.
Source and assessmentExtending nuclear plant lifetimes
Nuclear amendment: final provision 24 of Senate text BOCG 331-2923. Votes for the specific amendment removing shutdown dates for Almaraz, Ascó I and Cofrentes. This is the separate nuclear-provision vote, rather than a vote on the mobility bill as a whole.
Source and assessmentSelf-employed people and small businesses
UPN’s 13th congress policy and statute papers (2024). Proposes simpler administrative procedures for self-employed people and small businesses.
Source and assessmentMinimum income

Source and assessmentAid to other countries
UPN’s 13th congress policy and statute papers (2024). Supports public funding for development cooperation to fight poverty and inequality.

Javier Esparza’s direct statement in the Navarre parliament, reported by RTVE. Javier Esparza supports banning the burqa because of its impact on women’s freedom, while criticising VOX’s framing.
