Consequences of the law equality (Gag) of Leire Pajin Part 3
3. Non-discrimination in access to housing: Article 19, and other issues related to buying a home, is expressly prohibited “refuse an offer to purchase or lease or refuse the beginning of talks” for some of the causes under the law from now, the homeowners can not say no to a tenant simply because they want to rent your property, as they risk being brought before the body provided for by law and charged discrimination. This article adds to the already precarious legal uncertainty rental market in Spain. There seems to be the best way to encourage outward empty houses on the market.
4. Media: The new legislation does not stop when it reaches the field of media, which requires “respect the right to equality in the information, avoiding any form of discrimination.” Of course, the question is, who decides this? Does the new body created by the Ministry of Leire Pajin? And the answer is yes and that also means they are covered by shifting the burden of proof as to non-discrimination.
5. Public grants and contracts: All this had to have the corollary to Article 35, which clearly states that “the government may establish special conditions in order to promote equality and non discrimination.” Come on, to contract with the State or to receive a grant will have to jump through hoops to the provisions of the draft and discussed in previous sections.
Of course, everything is justified by the pursuit of equality. No equality before the law, but equality after the application of the law.
