ARCHIVED - All areas of Spain will have freedom of movement from 22nd June regardless of their de-escalation phase
The new normality will begin in Spain at midnight on the 21st June
The Ministry of Health has announced that regardless of what stage of the de-escalation process a region has reached, all of the residents of the country will be permitted free movement from midnight on the 21st June when the state of emergency expires and the country enters its “new normality”.
Apparently there is no other single piece of legislation which can give the Government the powers it needs to impede the movement of residents in a particular area other than by applying for a judicial order when the state of emergency endss, so it will be left to the governments of each of the 17 auronomous regions to make their own decisions about any restrictions they wish to impose on their own residents within their own individual regions.
Spain has a complicated power structure and although the national Government does have control over a lot of legislation and bodies such as the Guardia Civíl and Armed Forces, the 17 autonomous regions also have significant independence when it comes to running their own regions on a day to day basis and each has its own regional government.
Some of the larger regions are further subdivided into provinces, each of which will have a provincial government and within each province, further subdivisions give local municipalities their own local councils, which also have considerable control over what happens at a local level.
The ending of the state of emergency returns the power base back to the regional and local governments who regain control of their own police forces and health services, and will make their own decisions once again, respecting the conditions established in the decree relating to the “new normality” which was published on Tuesday.
However, the decree does enforce a certain amount of accountability, particularly in relation to the Covid virus and should it be necessary for the government to re-introduce the state of enmergency before a vaccine becomes available then it will do so, and should it be necessary to use a judicial route to isolate a specific block of the population due to a major outbreak then this will also be undertaken by the national Ministry of Health. An example being quoted in the Spanish media today is that of the Hotel in Tenerife in which 200 tourists were quarantined back in February when Covid first reared its head (seems a lifetime ago !!!!).
Madrid, Barcelona, Lleida, Ávila, Salamanca, Segovia and Soria will pass directly from phase 2 to the “new normal” without having gone through phase 3
Madrid, Barcelona and its metropolitan area, Lleida, Ávila, Salamanca, Segovia and Soria, which will remain in phase 2 of the de-escalation this week, will go directly to the “new normal” without having to go through the phase 3 next Monday evening.
Madrid announced this morning that it will again ask to advance to phase 3 next week because, according to its Health Minister, Enrique Ruiz Escudero, the region "continues to improve, in a substantial way, in all the health aspects of this crisis" in spite of the fact that the region still has the highest number of new cases and deaths in the country.
It does make a bit of a mockery of the system, and it’s a bit like saying everybody gets a coconut even if they threw the ball into the field behind them and not at the coconut shy!
Regional governments in popular holiday areas on the coast including Murcia are likely to be harbouring mixed feelings at the prospect of thousands of families from Madrid descending en-masse to their holiday apartments on Tuesday next week even though local businesses will undoubtedly be delighted to set their tills ringing again.
On Monday Ceuta, the Comunidad Valenciana (including Alicante province), Ciudad Real, Toledo, Albacete, León, Zamora, Palencia, Valladolid, Burgos, Girona and Cataluña Central will all move from phase 2 to phase 3.
Galicia has opted to move to "new normality" from Monday.
