Spain's 'Mari Carmen decree' to apply nationwide except Catalonia

La Razón reports the 'Maricarmen decree' will apply across Spain except Catalonia, but does not specify which parts are excluded or what alternative is planned.

English · Original discussion in Spanish · Published

**La Razón** reports that the "Maricarmen decree" will apply throughout **Spain** except in **Catalonia**. The report does not specify which parts of the decree are excluded or what alternative is planned.

The **La Razón** article states that the "Maricarmen decree" will apply across all of **Spain** except **Catalonia**. It does not include an entry-into-force date, the number of homes affected, or the cost. Nor does it clarify whether the exclusion stems from regional powers or political negotiation.

## The Catalan exception in housing
A house icon points to the housing area. **Catalonia** has regional powers over housing, which may require adapting or excluding state regulations.

That alone does not explain the scope of the exception. The report does not specify which part of the decree is excluded or what alternative is planned. Without that detail, the headline says less than it seems.

## What is known about the "Maricarmen decree"
The name "Maricarmen decree" is informal. It does not appear as an official designation in the **La Razón** text. The piece does not clarify whether it is a royal decree, a decree-law, or a package of measures.

The report has circulated with comments accusing the **PSOE** of betrayal over the territorial difference. That is a political reaction, not a fact about the regulation. Without the full text, the actual scope cannot be confirmed.
